In the words of Ray Stevens, I have returned.” The power is
back on and I’m ready to roll once again. The power interruptions were a bit of
a crazy thing. Something went SNAFU with the power company’s equipment that had
nothing at all to do with the weather or terrorists.
Apparently, if a scenario is so remote as to be virtually
impossible, there’s no need to have redundant systems in place to cover that
eventuality. Right? Sure… Ok, so the impossible happened, but all has been made
right once again, and here I am.
One of the side effects of the outage was me being unable to
meet my ROW80 goals, or even to post a check-in. I did try to get some writing
done on my stone age laptop (pen and paper), but I seemed to have started a new
story and got nothing at all done on any of the current WIPs. Bugger!
Ok, so here’s me, nose to the grindstone, trying to get
caught up by the end of the week.
So, what did I miss while I was in cyber-limbo, anything
good? Is there something new I should
check out?

ReplyDeleteNo, not yet dear. :)
DeleteNice to have you back Prudence!
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet. :)
DeleteAh, the ol' 'power went out' gambit ... I know that one!
ReplyDeleteHey dude, this ain't a job where you try to get out of work, this is the job when you get pissed if you can't work.
DeleteYou deserve a lot of credit for still writing, even with your stone-age tools! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jennette. It's a compulsion. I have to write something.
DeleteIt's good to have you back! I can't imagine being without electricity. You are a brave woman!
ReplyDeleteHi Emma, when the power goes off the silence is deafening. We have no idea how much background noise there is all the time.
DeleteWelcome back! I was gone for quite some time too! Good to see you again!
ReplyDeleteI would have done the same thing - grab one of my journals and start scrolling. I it crazy to say that the power outage was a sign? You needed to do less social media and more story focus. :) I'm back, too! Yay for us!
