In the Dark

   Yesterday was a C-R-A-Z-Y day for weather!!! The wind was soooooo strong that many trees (BIG ones) were down, roofs torn off and even a death in my hometown...very scary!!! I was actually nervous to go out in it and the weather people were advising everyone to stay in if possible. Well....I had my appt. with the surgeon yesterday, and I HAD to go. Let me tell you....I almost got blown onto the street into the path of an oncoming car...kinda scary when you don't have any control!!!! Anywho....I made it to my appt. and guess what????? He said it was a sprain, that my knees also hyper-extend (which of course, I already knew) and that I don't need any surgery!!! WOOHOO!!!!! I'm sooooo glad that I came through that appt. with flying colors!!!!


     So when I got to work yesterday, the power was off (as was it at our house as well). There is a generator there, but still...it's pretty dim and hard to see!!! So we did our best with what little light we had...but the best part?? We got to go home early!! YAY!!!! But I still didn't have any power at home, and I thought  "what the heck am I going to do till the Hubs gets home???" Well....I soaked in a nice, warm bath, by candle light, and then I lounged in my bed and read my book!!! It was GREAT!!!! I guess the power outage was a blessing in disguise b/c I got to have a little me time.....peaceful me time!!!! See???? Everything DOES happen for a reason!!!
