Good morning to all ●

[MarilynH]

I don't normally take a nap but I may make an exception today, the power was surging this morning lights flashing and the cordless was beeping, it was eerie in the dark but my husband Mark was already up for work  it was 5 o'clock. The power did go off until a little after 8 but we are very fortunate to have enough solar power to run the water pump which is one third horse power and our well is 115 feet deep plus we have a wood furnace and a wood cook stove and lights hooked up to the deep cell batteries and solar power so I'm thankful that hubby was home to get my coffee and have the house warmed up for me and I'm pleased to be able to flush the flush without power. I was outside at daylight and cleaned off the slush off the cement steps before it freezes because right now we're above 0 but temps are going to drop later on today. Be sure and enjoy another smoke free day my fellow Exers and to anyone having a hard time with your quit, stay strong and keep your mind as well as your hands occupied and stay close to this site because we're all here for you and believe that you will get through these rough days and you will, each day you get through is another day WON.
