I awoke from a nap at around 12:30 this afternoon to find that my electricity was out. I decided that this was a sign that I should make that trip to the mall to get mats to frame my photos, so I headed out to Holyoke. Man, I hate malls! How did I ever work in them for so long? Perhaps that's why I hate them so much. At least I found a decent parking space. I went to the Christmas Tree Shop, where I found some nice double mats for $1.99 each. Thanks for the tip, B! I got the heck out of there, and hit B&N on the way out to exchange my Bananagrams Yankee swap gift. I decided to get J.K. Rowling's Tales of Beedle the Bard, and I even got two bucks back, which I then spent in the Starbucks there on a decaf peppermint mocha twist. Yum.

The power was still out when I got home, but the sun was coming in the window, so I read for a while, then wrote for a while. It started to get dark, and chilly in here, so I headed out again to Taco Hell for a bite to eat, and CVS for a couple of things. Blessed be, the power was back on when I got home, and it's warming up in here nicely. Apparently a large tree up the street got blown down in the high winds today, and that was the culprit.

The weather report for tomorrow is 4 to 7 inches of snow, which is not what I wanted to hear. I hope I don't have to miss NYE in Hudson, but if the roads are bad, I will stay home. It's supposed to be very windy again tomorrow night, and I don't fancy getting blown off the road.

Yikes! Glad to hear your electricity is back.

I'm not thrilled about snow tomorrow, either... had hoped to have plans tomorrow night so we'll see how that goes.

It was, too - full of noisy kids when I got there. Fortunately, they left fairly soon after.

Good reason to use the drive-thru!

Heh, yeah, except that I was there because I had no power and wanted to sit someplace lit and warm. ;)
