Powerelss in the City

The demand for power here is greater than the supply so blackouts are frequent. Tuesday afternoon the power went out at about noon, and was restored just before dinner time. Wednesday it went off again around noon, came back at about 4.......and went off again around 7. The outage was local so not everyone was in the dark. However, the outage caused a big problem for me because Thursday we were planning to travel to a resort- packing in the dark is nothing nice! I am happy to report that I was able to get some things together and luckily we did leave Thursday morning. Good thing we left when we did because the power did not return until sometime on Friday or Saturday.
