Black Out

Our lights flickered a couple of times one night and then went out completely a few minutes later.  Mara was really upset and kept flipping the light switches.  I tried to explain to her that the lights wouldn't be back on for awhile, but she kept yelling, "Fix light, Mom!"  Lance was out of town and wouldn't be home until midnight.  I wasn't going to get a break that I so badly needed AND the lights were out.  Dairy Queen here we come! 



 There even happened to be a clown at DQ making balloon creations.

I love living in a small town but appreciate the convenience of living close to a bigger town.  I may have gone crazy in my dark house with two crying kids and no french silk pie blizzard.
