Monday, May 12, 2008

I awoke to computer alarms going off when the power went out. The clocks were blinking 3am; I finally couldn't take it anymore and got up around 5am. We got a lot of wind and rain. Danny seemed to want to stay out in the rain. I had to drag him home after he was done his business. The rain was cold and I needed gloves.

The company computer was out for a while. I turned it on and off a few times, wiggled some wires and it finally fired up. I was afraid the storm might have sent a surge through and fried it. I just got a new hard drive a couple months ago.

I sent a resume to a friend early in the morning and then called the company later and got an answering machine. I haven't heard anything yet.

I got my scanner going and dug up some documents and photos for my cousin. He is writing a book on family members who served in the Navy. I sent him my Dad's information and a photo of him in his uniform. I also scanned in some photos of my Aunt Lily's 90th birthday party. It was in 1990. There were 4 of my father's family attending who were in there 90's. It was the last time many of the family got together. Three of the nonagenarians passed away within the next months and I lost my mother. I'll put up a photo each day of the family gathering.
