Monday

Monday morning...well, it's 12:30 now, but we were without electricity and phone for a full hour! I have no idea of the reason. Have you ever noticed how quiet it is when the electricity is off? It's almost an eerie silence! No refrigerator humming, no furnace blower coming on, Nada, nothing, nil. It got kind of cool in here too but now we're back on again. The furnace is running, the refrigerator humming. The dryer had shut off shortly before the electricity went off, thankfully. Maybe once in a while we need to lose power just so we'll have more appreciation for our modern conveniences. Lord, thank you for our modern way of living today. Help us to not be so impatient when we lose power but to be more appreciative of the blessings we have. Thank you for helping the men to get the problem fixed.
