powerless

boy i would have made a lousy pioneer. sometime in the night the top of a big tree near by snapped off in the wind and took down the wire for the entire road. so this morning there was no water to make coffee, no land line to check for messages, no internet or email, no water for a shower. and to make matters worse i had a severe case of bedhead. thankfully i had the crank radio for news and my cell phone to call and explain my tardiness. dunkin donuts coffee not too far away. but my hair looked wretched all day long. no wonder pioneer ladies wore those silly bonnets.
