We Can See...Well, Except Angel...

Thank goodness, PGE has our electricity up and running. We were hit hard by the big scary storm that flew through the Pacific Northwest. Around our neighborhood, there were trees uprooted and electric poles with wires down everywhere.

Poor mom was trying her hardest to finish up her finals and research papers, but the storm hit and we went dark. The battery on the computer finally ran out and she attempted to write by candle light, but it was just too hard.

Grandma came and saved us around midnight Friday, but do you know what mom did. She left Angel and I here to freeze all alone in the dark.

Well, she actually came back around 3 am and saved us. We were both fast asleep and toasty warm in our beds. Grandma needed to get up real early for work so mom decided to let grandma go to bed and she would come back alone and pack us up.

Mom finished her classes, immediately crawled into bed, and actually slept for 17 hours straight. We were starving and near death, but no amount of crying woke her up.

Finally, the smoke detector did the trick. No, Angel and I did not burn down the house, the battery was running out, so it kept chirping real loud.

She awoke, gave us tons of yummy food, and tucked me away in the closet for a nice nap. All is well and back to normal.
