The Safety Of Home

March 2, 2009
[at home]

Because the snow was so heavy and plentiful, its weight snapped trees and power lines. At 6 pm on day 1, my power went out and would not come back until 31 hours later. That meant no heat, no light, no TV, no internet, no phone.

Since Tessa is still such a spazz around home, lighting candles for illumination purposes was out of the question, so when the sun went down, we simply went to bed (and got about 10 hours of sleep each night in the process). In between walks on day 2, we huddled under comforters to keep warm.

The night before, Tessa watched the snow fall from the safety of a warm(er) home.
