I know what it's like to be Amish! NO ELECTRICITY!!

I'm here! Let's get this party started!!! Well, It's been a while since I last posted, so not much has been going on....tonight (well technically last night) we had our electricity go out! let me tell ya, it wasn't that fun! I was on the computer and bam the lights go out! my mom and nate were in the other room. So anyways, I had to go get the flashlight which was in the kitchen, but the bad thing was we had tons of candles, but no lighter!! I know, fun!! but thankfully, I had asked Nate to ask Will to bring home a lighter, so when he got home a little later we were able to light some candles ! so okay here's the funny part, I got the brilliant idea to make a grilled cheese sandwich, yeah I don't recommen it if you don't have a stove! Here I am with little skillet thing whatever you call it, and a piece of bread and some cheese on it, I'm holding it over a candle!! SMART I KNOW!! to make a long story short, all I got from that whole ordeal was a very black bottom part of a frying pan and a slightly toasted piece of bread!! so here's another funny part, as I'm rinsing the pan, my little brother walks over to me and was like "yeah that didn't work either" He had held the bread directly over the candle!!!! I tell ya something I come from a long line of Scholars!! and the brillance has undoubltedly been passed on to me and my little brother!! but anyways, that was part of my interesting night!anyway, so we spent the rest of the night on candle light! It would have been awesome if a hot guy who was stranded came and knocked on our door, who needed shelter, it would have made it a little more romantic! Oh well, I guess I'll wish for that on my birthday!! haahaaa...not really! ya know what?!?! I don't like thunderstorms, some people love them, but I really don't! I mean I guess I kinda used to like them and the whole electricity going out, but now...I guess I just kinda find them depressing!! Man! am I getting old or what?!?! Anyway, as you can tell the electricity finally came on! it was about 2:30 am or so, but I am so thankful it finally came on!! Anyhow, hope all of your lives are going well for you! Well, I'm gonna get off of here.....Don't be sad, I'll be back!! Love ya all! Lizzie
