Hi everybody!
Just wanted to say thank you for the calls, thoughts, and prayers. We now have electricity again. It was out 7 1/2 days. The electric company finally got us reconnected Monday. I left early Monday morning for an out of town job and they got the elecricity back on Monday evening. If you ever want a challenge, try packing for a trip by candlelight.
The horses did fine, they had plenty of hay, feed, and water and were in the barn. Their main job seemed to be making cleaning an aerobic workout, and they did that job very well.
The damage here was minimal compared to some. I had to saw my way out of the driveway because the tree that overhangs the driveway was ice covered and blocking it. We lost our back yard fence to the neighbor's pecan tree but that is easily fixed. We lost everything in the freezer even though we put it in ice chests in the garage, it was just not cold enough.
We are extremely thankful that it was not worse.
Everybody have a safe and happy holiday week.
Merry Christmas!
Mary
