No Electric For Anna *UPDATE: My Pioneer Woman Tale by Anna_66 (post #27)

[Grace]

I just talked to Anna and she still has no power. The power guys got it back on for a brief period and then she said her and Mark heard a loud noise and out went the electric. She has been without electric for 37 hours now. They are keeping warm with a kerosene heater. Because they have no electric that means they have no running water so that is another problem. They have a well and they need that power to pump the water into the house

Keep sending some postive vibes her way in hopes that her electric is fully restored here real soon!

We know the no water problem also. That is why we have a generator. Power goes off, and we wheel it to the side of the house, plug it in, turn it on - and we have heat, fridge, water and a few lights. Couple up the street from us have a whole house generator. Power goes off, it automatically starts up. Can run on natural gas or propane.

Keeping finger crossed she's back on very soon.

Sending WARM wishes that Anna and her crew has power on soon, it's a pain to sit in cold house!

Well, 42 hours with no power is NOT fun I would have never made it as a pioneer woman either. I like my power and running water!

I have lots of pictures to share. I'm uploading them now but it will be later when I'm able to post them. I still have things to do around the house now that I have running water and unfortunately have to work all day today.

Stay tuned

Make that hot water for me please. We had no power several weeks ago for about 4 hours and I was ready to throw in the towel and head for a hotel. In my mind if you *made it* for 42 hours, that constitutes Pioneer Woman.
