Let there be light!

And Hope!

After a month and nine days, the power is back on in the barn! It is so helpful, as with daylight savings time, it's getting darker much earlier. And we have a doe due to kid at the end of the week (she could go anytime), so if it gets cold, her kids will need a heat lamp and warming, which will require power.

The electrician came today and spent the entire day here. We have all new power hooked up outside, and 100 amp service! Yay! He said I could get a dishwasher tomorrow... :) (hear that B?) We have a new breaker box in the basement, and L does not have the breaker panel in his room anymore. That always made me nervous.

The bad news is that we seem to have a propane leak, which we obviously will get fixed asap, and we have a water leak in the crawl space. It's always something...

The better news is that we grouted the bathroom tile tonight. So we should be able to move fixtures in on Wednesday. I can't wait to soak in the tub. I will soak until the water gets cold.

That's great news! You now have a modern farm again!

A dishwasher? That means an end to towel wars when drying dishes! Unbelievable, go for it!!
