Wait. Don’t be so hasty there. Last night Chris went into the laundry room to wash some clothes and noticed the room temperature was quite a bit higher than the rest of the house. Being her inquisitive self, she moved immediately to the only thing in the room that has changed lately – the freezer. She reached over to open it, touching the side. And it almost burned her hand. She gingerly touched the other side and the top. All really hot. The plastic storage bins she had replaced on top were pretty hot as well. And on the inside? The light was still on, but the temperature was obviously rising again. The freezer temp, I mean. Not Chris’ frustration factor. I have yet to find an accurate measure for that one. She hurriedly pulled the freezer back away from the wall and unplugged it again. I guess the proverbial "fickle finger of fate" caught up with her magic touch. Back to the internet search for a new freezer. No Blue Bell yet …
Speaking
of internet, AT&T was in the neighborhood all day yesterday working on the
cable/internet/phone situation. They
were as far as four houses down from us, so the damage went at least that
far. And as much as I would love to say
they completed the job … Nope. We still
have no internet. No WiFi. No Cable TV.
No house phone. Not sure how I
will get this posted this time. I think
I’ll take the computer up to the church and try to connect with the WiFi
there. I need to meet our resident
electrician anyway. Here’s hoping the
AT&T trucks make a fast return appearance …
Romans
12:12 says, “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”
Father,
please be with the linemen working on our lines, sure, but also on the power
issues all over the county as well as those in Louisiana who still need power
after weeks. Amen.
