I am Thankful for Electricity

A storm knocked out electricity in our neighborhood for over three hours this evening. I am forced to extend my comments yesterday to acknowledge that thanksgiving is also made fresh by loss. The temperature began to rapidly rise in the house. Our phone is through our high speed internet which doesn’t work without electricity. I was surprised that the thing I missed the most was the internet. I have become dependent on the computer for communication. Electricity = comfort and communication. I am thankful.
