Crikey! So, no power for a couple of hours on Tuesday afternoon . Hubby had to fetch wood and start a fire. He is featured on the trailcam, along with his friends! I felt badly, as I'd had a fire going for him to watch curling in the basement all week, during this cold weather.
Wednesday morning, as has been our routine, we feed Hooper, let him outside to play (an hour!), and let Daisy out of her dog crate to pee. Hooper came back in, and JB put him in the office. Daisy sat outside the door, ready to pounce. Dweeb. She hunts him down.
Our storm ended up dumping 9 more cm of snow.
The snow stopped, and then weird little square ice pellets... Overnight it was plain rain.
The phone has been out since after the power outage – the outage a planned repair, that we didn't hear a thing about. I was trying to phone Daisy's possible new mommy.
I went on the website. It looked hopeful, but I had to create an account. Hubby had to fetch the bill with our account number.
Next, they say to troubleshoot on your own, unplug all devices. (We have only TWO working jacks...another long story. ) Leave them out for 60 seconds, and plug in the non-electric phone.
When I finally managed all this, I saw a 'chat live' option. No dice.
Finally recharging hubby's flip phone, I got through to Bell, after a menu list that'd frustrate a patient person. I am not patient, and pretty stressed over Daisy, who has betrayed our blended family. Our phone should be up, they finally told me, by Friday at 10 p.m.
It makes an interesting sound...
Our sidewalk is melting ice. We decided to blow the snow, with rain expected.
Today it rains. This system is rolling on up the continent.
I have a client this afternoon. We'll see if this happens.
School busses have been cancelled all week.
