It Was a Dark and Stormy Night

October 29, 2006 | Category: Personal, Random Thoughts

No really it was…we had a big wind storm last night. We even lost power for a few minutes which is unusal as normally we never lose power. On the other hand the folks that live on the hills around me do lose power even when the wind blows a little bit. I guess that is to be expected when you live on a hill.

The big tree in my front yard was rocking back and forth pretty good and I have a fear on day it will decide it no longer wants to get pushed around by the wind and will fall into my house. I also have two skylights which make all kinds of racket when the wind is strong. Since I have been having problems sleeping none of this helped me as each new sound caused me to wonder if I was going to be picking a tree out of my house in the morning. The racket got particlualrly bad this morning and when I got up to let Tara out I noticed that the window in the room next to my bedroom was wide open. Go figure no wonder the racket kept me awake.

Oh well the house survived and I guess I did as well. The title of this post is from a famous author…any guesses :-)
