What we take for granted...

Just wanted to drop aline to say that I had a relatively new experience on Sunday night. We lost power for a LONG time. Now I am not talking 2 or 4 hours, but almost 24 hours. Electricity is a fundemental thing in life, and when you don't have any, life in today's world becomes extremely difficult, and not to mention horribly HOT. So, our house was without electricity from 6:45pm on Sunday evening to 5:30pm Monday night. Also, yesterday was one of the hottest days on record, topping off at 116. Which brings me to a topic that I have been thinking about for awhile. Wouldn't a good mini-scrapbook be titled..."What things in life I take for granted, and why I probably shouldn't." After yesterday, electricity in the desert would be tops on my list.
