Hehe...I sure did. I missed the quilting board. Had to check everything out here and then I started a load of wash. As you said...we all have our priorities. (My husband wasn't surprised at all that this is what I did first!!)

:-D :-D

So glad you are safe-and in the light again! My son is flying to Virginia Beach tomorrow for a wedding-he'll be there about 10 days-are you near there? I hope the weather stays nice!

Glad you've got electricity again!
But it looks like you may be dealing with the next hurricane, Katia, towards the end of next week.
Better get yourself prepared - again.

Unfortunately, the school district I worked in had power restored in 3 days, so I had to try to find a way to keep clean and curl my hair to go to work without electricity! So glad that part is over for you and you can start to get back to normal.
