Those are not my dust bunnies.

I have no idea where the power outage originated from, but there are fresh road flare ashes near the local bar..
Local power company once “experimented” with three transformers on a power pole on county route 22 in Johnson NY.
It attracted lightning like a moth to flame for some reason.
One night, the cooling fins on one of them got zapped.
Power went out, power company came out and turned the power back on.
Didn’t notice the slow leak in the transformer.
Three hours later, there was a bright white flash, a loud report, and the bottom cover of the transformer imbedded itself three inches into the ground below.
And power was out again.
:-/
Beware the mighty hunter!
Today’s kitteh fell into a bucket of orange Tang.
Poor orange floof ball.
Tiny katz is fierce in a cuddly sort of way, for sure. But I’m so very partial to marmalades! <3
It was aliens.
(Insert Giorgio meme here)
That’s quite the wind graphic, Moosie! Interesting for sure, and rather mesmerizing, as well.
Don’t get blown away!
That’s quite the dust bunny collection. Did you get them from the Lower Levels? What was it, cheaper by the dozen?
I hate using my phone as a computer, and in fact I took most of the apps off except for what was absolutely needed. It lowered my bill by $30.
Is your power back on, yet?
Is today the beginning of Channuka?
Just axin’.
Those bunnies look more like dryer lint.
According to my calendar, Hanukkah begins at sundown tonight.
Down with the Macedonians!
When I was living in Texas, I heard a loud boom one morning about 0930, and the power went out.
I stepped outside and headed for the office (they had a generator) and asked them to call the power company because the transformer had blown. The manager asked me how I knew that.
Hahahaha! On my way to the office, I passed the transformer and it was not only not humming, but there was a dead crow at the foot of the pole it was on! Looked like that bird got the shock of his life...feathers everywhere!
Sundown tonight. :)
I am getting a puffer coat from LL Bean from mom and dad. My sister got me ear muffs and I believe either gloves or mittens with matching scarf.
I got my folks a gift cert to Cheesecake Factory, and sister gets 25 for Nordstrom’s. I’m really broke I gave way too much to charity this year.
I’ve spent the last couple of days working on my holiday cards. The goal is to get them to the post office by Wednesday. I also have a letter for Santa. I’m asking him for something this year,
.
I knew that was spelled wrong but my brain couldn’t figure out how to fix it. One of those days. Thanks.
In about half an hour I have to go for my blood draw. It’s 42 out, and I don’t know about the rest of it, as my home page is upgrading. I miss it. It had my daily Scripture verse on it, the weather, this day in history, birthdays of famous people, needs feeds...Yah.. I miss it. No telling when it will be back up with it’s upgrade.
There shouldn’t be too much traffic coming or going so it will be good. I forgot some stuff at the store yesterday, so I’ll just stop there on the way back.
You know you are old when you don’t mind getting clothes for presents instead of toys.
Those are not my dust bunnies.
It sounds like you’ll be pretty warm, for sure!
I need a new coat. The heavy one I have was old when I got it, and the zipper doesn’t work, so it’s not much good in the wind. It has a hood and a storm flap, but the flap isn’t much good without a zipper.
Since I’m very susceptible to the cold, it’s hard for me to go anywhere when it’s cold, just because I don’t have a good coat. Dang.
I’ve always like getting clothes...
I like clothes.
I feel naked without them.
;o]
LOL!
He was such a gifted actor!
I’m really blue today. Maybe I should rent a movie with Peter Sellers.
Or Monty Python. The dust bunnies are making me think of killer rabbits,
On the other hand, I still have Fawlty Towers and Red Dwarf in VHS and my VHS machine still works so maybe I can do that instead.
