Wired now for the power

Well the electrition came by and re-wired the stuff that was broken. He told us we had a burned out breaker box so that is new and the box outside on the wall of the house where the power comes in is new. Now we just wait till the power company comes by and hooks us up. We are hoping it will be today. I found an unsecured network when I turned on the computer today (via a surger protector and the power bar) so I got online to do what I can while I have the line.

The house has been so nice and warm the last 2 nights that I have actually been too warm in the evenings. its awesome. Of course the generator gets turned off over night so its chilly when you get up but not anything like when we were just running heaters. I can not thank Dave and Betty enough for coming over to get us hooked up like that. I never thought I would be warm again.

The animals are doing ok. Sirus is going stir crazy but he is holding up pretty well. I moved the ferrets back upstairs. its warm enough for them up there and they have both halves of the cage now that strabo is gone so they can get some playing in, even if its in a small area till we get power. Corky is happy where ever there is heat and just loves the fireplace. When we had the space heaters I kept having to get him off them. He does not underestand that a space heater is not a heating pad and you dont lay on them. The fireplace is up a little step so at least he does not crawl into there. He does get as close to it as he possibly can. And Aiden is Aiden he takes it all in his stride.
