Hurricane Summary

Jul 30, 2008 18:27

I don't know how long we were without power, but I had put everything in our 3 cu ft freezer, figuring it'd stay better that way. We left Tuesday nite, and got home Saturday afternoon. By then we had power, Internet, and TV. Nothing in the freezer had melted or defrosted. BUT, the AC compressor didn't work, apparently because it got flooded. I left a message for the manager, and by Monday afternoon, that was fixed, too. Had to throw out some stuff in the fridge, but, all in all, no big deal. We were very lucky, all things considered.
Oh boy, Hubby just came in with steam coming out of his ears. On Thursday, when there was still tons of water all over the road, his b*t*h of a boss made him drive through it all to go to McAllen to work on an install. The truck wasn't running right after that, so today he took it in for service. It's gonna cost us anywhere between 600 and 800 dollars to get it fixed and rent a car in the interim. He complained to her boss, who told him that's why he gets a car allowance. He is so not a happy camper. He shoulda known they were gonna screw him one way or another, but they don't realize he's not gonna take it any more.
We had Internet on Sunday and Monday, but Tuesday morning it was gone. It finally came back on about 5 PM today, so we're reconnected.

Anyway, I'm back, for now!
