Power outage

In the windstorm that hit the pacific northwest on Thursday night, a lot of homes lost power. We, still do not have power - 5 days later. They're saying it could be through the weekend before we get power. Funny enough, most of my community got power on Sunday night, but just a few homes, including yours truly, were specially priviledged to lose power. Even when I lived in India, we never lost power for more than a day! My family back home is finding it hard to believe that it can take so long. But the damage was so much that PSE crews have been working round the clock to get power back. I am sure they would have wanted to enjoy the holidays with their families as much as we do. For them and for us, I hope the power situation becomes normal soon!
