Been doing this for a while. 😫 I prefer to think of it as being mature! 😁

Once I get my electricity back, I have a whole bunch of memes to post. Cannot do so on my cell phone because cell phone service is iffy too due to all weather related issues here this past week.

Maybe you should go to your local library to post them. It probably has A/C and you could charge your phone too! 😉 Be careful how you dress though, so you don't get confused with the homeless people. (I don't go to our library. It's too scary, these days.) 😕

Like me, putting up with the inconvenience. It could be worse-like flooded out in Vermont. I was finally able to find ice today for my cooler. Now I can gave something cold to drink. Makes the situation far more bareable (sp?).

Although no phone service so a cell would have been nice! Hang in there! And we expect a flurry of memes!

Tennesseer , can you go to the movies in a neighboring community? Don't want you to get sick with all of this heat. It's even getting nasty here. We're going to hit 100 degrees next week, which is a month early for this part of the county. Make sure you're staying hydrated.

You've been without power for a LONG time. Going without until Monday... That's crazy!

Wonder in insurance would cover it? Also, you can get a hand crack cell phone charger. We have one in our tornado box. If that helps.

I do believe power back on just a few minutes away. Been watching repair folks working on my neighborhood's outage problem.

I have a cell phone charger doohicky thing I can plug into the old cigarette lighter feature. I can charge my cell phone and tablet that way.

The cigarette lighter thing is in my vehicle. I did not make that clear.

From a story on notalwaysright.com: "That guy only has two brain cells, and both are fighting for third place.”

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And now, all the internet providers and cable tv providers are taking their systems on and off to repair the storm damage from last week. So I probably won't be posting for long or posting sporadically this evening. I guess there is temporary light at the end of the tunnel.

I missed my cold, refrigerated drinking water. I cannot sleep in a hot humid room. I just flop about all night. If I were you, at this point, I’d be a cranky, grouchy, damp mess.

I found the house quite suffocating at night. I sat outdoors most nights well into the early morning. I found it easier to sit outdoors with a 90 degree heat index but slight breeze than indoors with a temp of 85 degrees with zero air movement. A good night's sleep was maybe two hours? Mapped several times a day.
