Power came back today. (Day 11) Do I win the prize??

I s'pose. Mine came back on Friday, but we were out of town until today. Just dropped $100 at Wal-Mart just to re-stock the "essentials" in the fridge...

"I s'pose."

Only because he posted first, though.

"Just dropped $100 at Wal-Mart just to re-stock the 'essentials' in the fridge..."

Gezzzz, 10 24-paks of Miller Lite.

...of course that's at Sam's. {g}

Yes, you get to pay your electric bill! Seriously, I got my electric bill last week. So, DumbVAPower has enough people to work to send out those bills but not enough to get the electricity restored. Sigh.

I will be in full letter-writing mode once the dust has settled. To DumbVAPower, the State Corporation Commission, etc. This has been a fiasco.

I spent $200 at Costco replacing food that had to tossed. And another $380 at Lowe's for a new microwave that didn't survive the power going out or the power coming back on. And we haven't even bought the generator yet!
