You probably know the rest of the famous saying. Well, here's today's version of it: There I sat, broken hearted, had to wire but couldn't see.
I've lived in my current house for about 24 years. Once in a while we'll have a 1-5 minute power outage. The longest we've had before today was we once had a 3-day outage due to a massive snow storm people refer to as snowmageddeon. It was actually twin storms that paralyzed the area - took me 12 hours to get home from work - 8 mile drive and most people, including the bus system did not make it home in their vehicles.
Today, normal day, the power when out at about noon and is still out at almost 7pm. The power company expects it back by 10pm. This is due to a car wreck.
It really makes it had to work on the wiring job I'm trying to get done with no lights.
I'm keeping my phone charged via my computer and my phone is providing a hotspot so my computer is on the internet. I'll be completely dark in less than an hour - hope it comes back on by then. Not fun keeping myself company with no technology![Frown :( :(](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png)
