What a week!

This past week was really crazy.

First, it started off with a snowstorm last Saturday. While we only received about 3 to 4 inches of snow, many of the tree limbs and power lines in our neighborhood fell down. Things seemed be fine at home until that night. We were watching the 11 PM TV news that was reporting the various power outages in our area. Then, all of a sudden, "click", everything went off. We were without power. The next morning the power was still off. We passed the day, hoping that the electricity would be restored but it wasn't. So, we packed our bags and drove to a friend's house.

Monday was Halloween and the power was still off. The local police were estimating that the lights would come back on Wednesday. That night, instead of hosting the Trick or Treaters, I had an MRI of the brain.

When I was leaving the facility, my wife called and said the power was back. We then repacked our belongings and went back home.

On Thursday, I visited the doctor who gave me the good news that I did not have a brain tumor, just water in the ear. Thank God.

Now tomorrow, we are flying down to Florida to enjoy a week in the sun. We haven't been away for quite a while and we are looking forward to just relaxing before the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays begin. Because of this, I will be skipping next week's posting on this blog.

But, if you would like to keep up with our vacation and see what we are doing, I will be posting quick daily summaries on my other blog: The Traveling Fundraiser. 

I'd appreciate your stopping by there and reading it while I am gone.

Cheers!
