How Ironic

After more than a week of rain, rain and even more rain, the sun finally decided to show up for the day. Looked very lovely as I sat here looking out the window and enjoying the warmth that the sunshine brought in.
Suddenly, without any warning whatsoever, the power to my house went off! I assume it wasn't just my house as we just paid the bill a few days ago, but the neighborhood.
So, here I sat with no power, no computer, no nothing but the sunshine which also went away quickly as more clouds rolled into the valley.
Since I had been sitting here contemplating microwaving some food I guess it was good that we have cereal and milk, or I might starve without my precious electricity.
Power was off for about an hour, not that big of a deal, just seemed ironic that the one day of nice weather in such a long period of time is the day the power goes off.

Power

Sitting here fooling around when all of a sudden, blackness on my computer screen! In the corner of my eye I see someone outside and I dash out there to see the SCE man turning things off. What the heck?
I tell him I've had the power on since January. He tells me they have no record of power service ever having been established. Finally he gives me a card and tells me I need to call a number. I tell him I cannot do that because he's turned the power off and my phone needs electricity to work as it is a cordless phone. He gives me one hour to do what I need to do.
So, I called Edison and get the service turned on. Again. LOL Hopefully, when the man comes back he will have gotten the order and will leave things on and go on his merry way. If not, I will be without power and will be grumpy without my computer I'm sure.
I did also get the man at SCE to say he would send me an application for their CARE program, offering low income households a discount of 20%. I'm sure I qualify for that, my income sucks.
As for you all, have a great weekend. Have some fun :)
