make_your_move: (tea & laptop)
This morning after I woke T up, she pointed out their alarm clock needed reset. So we go to turn on the light and it was dim .. so I thought perhaps we'd had a power outage in the night and lost a light bulb or two ... 'cept no ... all the bulbs were functioning, but at half the power. Turn on lights in other rooms in the house -- our room: full power, middle bathroom: half power, girls room half power - Kitchen: half power and none of the appliances are working. Note from teenage daughter - Mom, Stove isn't working, microwave is barely functioning. Love you, Widg Family room: full power - Dining/Living rooms: half power -- it's totally bizarre, it's like the middle part of my house is in some dim Twilight Zone. We had to bring the toaster in the family room to make some semblence of breakfast *hmph*

So, I have a call into the electrician who is due here in the next hour or so....

Also, lack of kitchen appliances means I haven't had tea yet *grrrrr*

Shortly after I posted last, Dominon VA Power showed up unannounced at my door to ask if I was having problems with the power -- they are outside now working some voodoo magic and hopefully all will be restored soon. Power will be going on and off while they work, so I'm posting fast.

Wish them luck -- I need my caffeine!

So, the power works completely now -- and I have been appropriately caffinated *yay*. Turns out that sometime ago the cable company nicked a power line that feeds into the house and it has been slowly deteriorating and went wonky this morning.

Now I'm just waiting for the water heater to heat back up :)
