And 8.5 hours later...

...electricity returns as darkness falls, meaning that not much useful got done today. Switched out a smoke alarm. Set up the new wireless doorbell, but didn't install it because I wanted to make sure that there were no conflicts with the cordless phone. Got the fireplace going for the first time this season, a necessary thing considering that the temp in my office dropped to 63F. At least we were able to keep the living room comfortable.

After the power returned, I was able to determine that there were no conflicts with the phone. Yea.

Mother Nature did a good job of pushing the leaves into piles against the fence. Maybe tomorrow we'll give the new leaf vacuum/grinder thingie a whirl.

The excitement never stops when you have a house...

Yes, the difficult time is over, just the bad memories remain! Thanks! It is easier to get things done inside when a nice, sunny day isn't demanding that you go outdoors and "take the air".
