We have been getting a lot of snow up here in Maine. It is gorgeous up here when it snows and that part I love. But since we have lived here, the electric has gone out 3 times. I will be the first to admit it, I take electricity for granted! I love electricity.
Sunday night, the electric went out again right before we went to sleep. You may be thinking that 'it would be nice to sleep through the blackout' but that is not the case for me. I need noise. Fan. Heater. Anything. I can't sleep in silence. Silence is too nerve wracking for me to sleep through.
I don't know why the silence bothered me so much. I don't think watching the TV shows I like help much. I love watching Criminal Minds, Cold Case, etc... The fan makes the little sounds go unnoticed and without the fan they are amplified. As Aaron slept the night away, I was convincing myself someone was coming up the stairs to get me.
The electric did come on Monday around 2:00 pm. And as of this morning there are still 15,000 people in Brunswick without electricity. Thank goodness we are not one of those homes. I don't think my nerves could take it!
