No Power

Our power went out this morning when I was crawling out of the nest I like to call bed!  Rob was mid-breakfast making, and because he's such an awesome boyfriend, he started with mine!  I got to eat pancakes and the poor guy got nothing but bacon and bits and pieces of what I'm sure was going to be some sort of epic scramble or omelette creation!  

We spent the morning and early afternoon curled up on the couch, Gatsby too, layered with blankets and mountains of throw pillows!  I caught up on my I watched vidoes From some of my favorite YouTubers (Leighann, Ingrid, Fleur, and Stephanie and Tracy) while Rob played on his laptop!  At this point we learned that there were 22,000 people in Kent County without power and that our estimated turn-on time was 11:30pm!  Still in blanket city on couch hill we moved on to watching a few episodes of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia on my little iPad Mini!  

We then made an executive decision to head to Founder's...because they had power, beer, sandwiches...you know, all the necessities!  So, I hopped in the shower and put myself together best I could in the dark (still haven't gotten to play with my Naked 2 palette...boo!)!  Thankfully our water heater is gas and not electric, unlike our stove! 

We just arrived at Founders and much to my surprise they have Frangelic Mountain Brown back on draft!  It's one of my favorites!!!! And they're piloting a batch of Choco Pom, which is (as the name implies) a combo of chocolate and pomagranate!  Can't wait to give that a try!!!  But, alas our cheer is short lived!!!  Now our power back-on estimate is December 26th in he afternoon!!!  And, yes - it's only the 22nd!!  For anyone into facts and numbers, the word on the street is that 10% of the entire community of Consumers Energy users is currently without power!  

Looks like we'll be tising the season old school!  Just pray I don't burn the apartment down!!! 

I'll update as I know more!  But until then, "Cheers!"
