Power Goes On and Off in Day by Day

A quick update: we lost power again last night around 7. It was still light outside, so we just went about unpacking the lighting we’d put away, pulling out the generator and hooking it up to the window air conditioner (which worked great…cooled our bedroom AND bathroom), and other stuff, but we didn’t have to board up and we’d already eaten and showered, so we just talked a bit and then went to bed. I sat up reading until midnight. Sometime in the early morning hours, the electric came back on: lights, dishwasher, whatever was on at the time when the lights went out! Woke us right up! We shut off the window unit, turned down the house a/c (since it was warm), and went back to bed.
All that said to say this: no electric means no WiFi which means no connectivity. So I’ll be on and off, I imagine. Thanks for all your good wishes and much love!

Good that you have a generator as a back-up and hoping the power will soon stop cutting out.
