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

[anna_66]

I had planned on cleaning in the house since Roxey, Huney and Simba were getting groomed but since we had no electricity, it really didn't work out.
So Bon and I took daddy lunch

Then took a walk down by the river. Our walking place was flooded over

So we just walked on the bridge. Of course I had to make Bon sit for a couple pics...lol.



Then we went and picked up the kids.
Simba was tired from his long day.

And Huney, she was all smiles!

She just couldn't wait to get home and get in the mud


more to come

Roxey was tired too


Wednesday Night

We went out for dinner since we couldn't fix anything at home. We were home about 10 minutes and WE HAVE POWER! Unfortunately 30 minutes later...no power

Thursday Morning
Still no power, so how am I supposed to fix my hair for work
This is what I came up with

Not great, but it worked.

Power didn't come back on until around 3pm on Thursday.

Luckily it's still on, but now we're having a blizzard now and I'm just praying we don't loose the power again!

Here's a few of my favorite pictures I took of the trees. I think they are beautiful. Deadly but beautiful.





Our neighbors yard


Look at all that ice




I spent a lot of the day driving around and taking pictures. There are quite a few if you want to look at the rest, they're HERE

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers and I hope everyone that's getting bad weather fairs alright. I'll be thinking of you.

w W! Anna! I just viewed all of your pictures and you did an EXCELLENT job of capturing what has been going on in your neck of the woods. I think you should be a TV reporter part-time! I will NEVER take my electric and water for granted again! The pictures told the tale, pioneer woman!! What a cute little mastiff thingie you have in your car! I love it! By the way, you are pretty enough that you don't even need make-up or having your hair fixed to go to work. I think you looked terrific! Loved the pictures of Mark getting American Idol to come in for you. Whatta guy! Thanks so much for these! It really sort of *took me there!" (But I really wouldn't want to BE there. hehe!)

I'm sorry to hear all the trouble you went though...but I must admit I enjoyed your pictures. Are the freshly groomed dogs all muddy now? I want to see another pic of Simba in his new 'do. I loved the pics of Bon on the bridge. You look great too, I wish I could look that good without power or water! We've had the power off many times, and the water a few times...but I don't think we've ever had both at once!
