We are without power thanks to Ike and a tree that fell on our power line in our backyard. Last night was awful with cracks of trees falling, kids waking up, and just general uneasiness from sleeping in the basement.
Luckily, our neighbors have power so we are "borrowing" some from them to run our refrigerator. Pictures of the extension cord to our house to be posted soon.
It could have been worse. If the tree fell the other way, I would be buying a new kitchen, dining room and living room.
My family is safe and my daughter is much better. I am thankful for that.

MAN, what a crazy few days! I'm glad everything's relatively okay. I do not miss those kinds of weather disasters. we just have the threat of the Big Earthquake looming over us....
I was very nervous when Gustav blew through, given that I slept through the April tornadoes. I was lucky to only lost cable/internet/phone for a few days. I was even more nervous when Ike was here because they were predicting tornadoes. This time I only lost cable for a day. Which was fine because I was too wrapped up in a book to really notice.
I'm glad the tree fell the other way. I noticed some other houses and cars weren't so lucky.
