The Lights Are On


The power company pulled through in the end. They got me hooked up and running on Wednesday. It is a new line that connects the pole to the house underground. This is a wonderful thing. If you've ever lived through the aftermath of a hurricane, you understand how valuable it is to have underground power. Now, the line to the transformer is still overhead, but I'll take whatever I can get.

Powering On

I'm still here. Almost 2 weeks after I got my C.O., I'm still trying to get power. No power (and air conditioning) is a deal breaker for me. On Monday, I finally got to the right person because when I went home to wait for the Cable/Internet folks, an inspector for the power company was there and told me that I had been fast tracked. Today at lunch, I noticed that the cable was dropped off. The boys are work tell me that I still need to wait for the line crew and then the meter crew. One more day at best...
