OTP: What a week

Sunday the 14th, Cincinnati got hit with a hurricane. For those
outside the States, Cincinnati is about 1000 miles inland! Hurricane
Ike hit Texas, took a right and came up through the heartland over the
top of Curtis's Evansville, over me and causing 8 inches of rain in
Ron B's Chicago.

Power was knocked out through 90% of a 300 by 100 mile swath. I was
lucky. We got ours back in 18 hours. My daughter lost her power,
then days later went to the hospital, delivered my 6th grandchild,
and came home yesterday to still no power.

My other daughter lost hers for four days (and delivered my 7th
grandchild this morning). Due to the power outages, I worked
Sunday night, 15 hours on Monday, and 13 on Tuesday and found out
that I'm either getting older or ADT is starting to wear me down.

So, I lost about 10 pounds of meat and gained 18 pounds in
grandchildren. Not a bad trade.
