It was quiet at the market. Three people fed me so it was a good day. When I got home one of my neighbours called to tell me something electrical fell off the house. I took a look and saw the main power lines and metal pipe were torn off the side of the house. We had about fifty large icycles hanging from the roof and when the last one fell it took everything with it. As it was raining I decided to call the power company. It wasn't as serious as it could have been but will cost a lot to put everything back up again. Later I took the dog and her cousin for a walk. It was wet and slippery out. I almost went arse over tea kettle in the riveway. We were without power for about six hours. I'm sure glad it wasn't about thirty five below out or I would have frozen my arse off. The power just came back on about fifteen minutes ago and it is some welcome site. Buddy is happy to get his little heater on again and was chirping away. I'm off to surf the internet then make myself a late supper.
