A new year had begun...

Another new and exciting year has begun! There are so many ideas and projects to look forward to in the
months ahead. I have been making lists of things I want or need to accomplish in the next few months and the
list is long, but definiely something to anticipate.


The first thing I am really anticipating right now is the return of our electricity. Here in western Kansas,
we had a severe ice storm last week that left us without power since early Saturday morning. Without our
generator and the couple hours of power it provides for us, I have no idea what we would do! One thing I do
know is that I will really appreciate electricity; something that we take for granted everyday until we are
without it. :)

At least now I am able to be online a few hours a day when the generator is on. Because of all the ice and moisture, I am easily disconnected. But I can get online for a little each day and feel like I am not completely cut off from the online world. Over the weekend I was getting desperate!! I have never felt so helpless without power AND the internet!

Hopefully the power will be back on soon! And perhaps my life will return to normal schedule!
