Well 5 days later after the ice storm of aut 9 Electricity has been restored to my work place but looks like its gonna be awhile until they get it on at the house and who knows if my DSL will be working. got lucky and only had water out for a day so that's good Will be raiding from office which is also good as we have an out of control 8 year old that is driving me nuts staying with us. So looks like I'm back as far as the office part goes.
I got lucky and never lost power for more than 5 or 10 minutes at a time. some family of mine had lost power for 3 or 4 days though. i'll be glad when everything is back to norm and cleaned up.
My parents in Berea have been without power for several days now.. they moved to Florence to stay with my aunt until power comes back on at their house.
