Electricity Dependence

You realize how much you depend on electricity when the power goes out for an extended period of time. When we got home from work yesterday, the power had been out for at least a half-hour, and it took another hour before it came back. No biggie, I could play piano – if it wasn’t digital. OK, I could work on my quilt…the sewing machine and iron both require electricity. Clean? No hot water. There was battery life in my laptop, but no internet connection. I ended up working on my quilt, doing prep work that didn’t require sewing or ironing. It was rather pathetic. And hot. Air conditioning and fans, after all, require electricity. :)
