Irene has come and gone. We lost power for just under 2 days. Some friends just got power back yesterday and some towns in CT still have 90% of people without power. School was supposed to start Wednesday but has been bumped back to starting after Labor Day. Life could be much worse, I just need to look to the coast or up to Vermont for reminders.
I need to write down my favorite storm memory so I won't forget it. The power went out on Sunday around 10am. We were talking 'power' a lot at our house. Well, Annie went to play in the basement and ended up finding all of the Music Maker instruments. She came upstairs ringing a cowbell and shouting for us. In Annie's words: "Mommy, Daddy, look!! The power didn't go out on the cowbell. The cowbell still has its power." She wouldn't stop ringing it.
So cute, well...until the loud cowbell ringing wasn't so cute and we had to send it back to the basement.
