You are probably exactly right! Bonaire and Venezuela are only 50 miles apart. That's as close as I've ever come to being at your home!

Pretty close! Hopefully we will be closer. I told my mother that next year I would like to go to the USA she says that if I propose it I can achieve it. Hopefully if ... Just the light has just arrived! Apparently this not having light will be every day

Really... Being without electricity is happening every day? And your mom is right... Hold on to your dreams!

If these last days are gone. Today we were like until 11 o'clock in the morning without light and then he came back, and then he went back as from 1 to 3 I hope he does not leave tonight...

At my house when the power goes out I am no longer able to get water from my faucet in the kitchen sink. The pump will not work if there is no electricity. So I do have water stored in big jugs, and I'm lucky that if it were to last for a really long time I do have water right outside in the spring, and I have a filter that I could put it through. Do you have to worry about drinking water if the power stays out for very long?

No less bad that is not a problem. Our water is from the spring and we always have it.

Oh, that is good! And you do not need to worry so much about having a way to keep warm like we do, so that is good. I have natural gas for my stove burners for cooking and I have a natural gas fireplace in the living room that will work without electricity.

How has your day been?

A really lazy day today! I should have done some laundry, but kept putting it off, and now it will simply have to wait until tomorrow! 😁 and tomorrow is Shadow contest day- putting out the winners post and the announcing the next contest for next week seems to fill a big portion of my day! Posts take a lot of time don't they?

Yes apparently it was a lazy day. Yes, because I think we take this quite seriously and we try to make sure everything goes well. It's good to have cakes to do so I can post on them. Just a client wrote me a while ago for a cake now the problem is that we did not find eggs on the island.😞
