Powerless.

A giant windy thunderstorm swept through the Twin Cities last night and knocked out power to a quarter of a million businesses and homes, including mine. We lost one tree (it landed on a neighbor’s covered porch) and probably a second one (it was partly uprooted and I don’t think it will be long for this world).

Losing trees makes me sad. But there are some neighbors with much bigger trees on their cars and houses, so I am counting my blessings.

I am using the McDonald’s wifi to post from my iPad while the kids eat junky fast food, but I don’t think you’ll hear from me till the power comes back on. They are saying it could be a couple of days. I bought some ice for my fridge and freezer, but I am worried it isn’t enough. Wish me luck!
