How appropriate to have this topic after the power has been off for five hours.
I don't remember that happening since the kids were little and we had a night of candle-lit board games and story-telling. A sweet memory!
The wind has certainly caused a bit of havoc today. It was wild! I was in the study today when I happened to glance out the window just as a giant gum tree came crashing to the ground. Sian didn't go to uni as the road was apparently very dangerous with trees down and things blowing all over the road. Gippsland Uni was shut down!
It was quite disconcerting seeing 'bright' lights all over the other side of Warragul whilst we were cloaked in darkness. It's more often the other way around...we still have power when theirs' goes out!
It's funny how we miss the 'bright' lights of the computers and phones and things once we can't use them though!
And, don't you just love the cheer that everyone lets out when all is 'bright' again?
