Seriously???

so today was my day of rest at home... until 10:40am when a tree decided to uproot itself, fall over pulling down our power/cable/phone lines and finally come to rest on the car. um, what??? i was just sitting on the couch responding to work email and watching frasier, when out of the corner of my eye i see something start falling - um, yes, it freaked me out.

yeah, this is kind of funny. well, at least it was until 7pm when GA Power finally showed up (yup, i said 7) and said they were just cutting down and securing the power line. they apparently didn't have what was necessary to fix it (but there were 3 trucks at my house). oh, and they couldn't give me an ETA on when it will be fixed. WHAT??? oh, and they weren't going to be able to fix the power lines until we removed the tree/car from the driveway. SUPER!!!

that's when the neighbors came to the rescue with the chainsaw and tree limb cutter and cut the limbs down around the car and over the driveway. the pathfinder is just fine - i drove it to my parents house where i'm now sitting with heat, tv, power, and internet. heaven.

husband comes home tomorrow. i may turn into one of those wives that never lets my husband leave the zipcode after this weekend.

having said all of that, it's still a little funny...
