Success!

So here I sit, finally typing my blog on my newest new laptop.  My son transferred all my information from my older new laptop, got everything up and running in under four hours, deleted everything personal and we were able to return the faulty unit with no problems,  Why, you might be asking, didn't all this work get done on Friday, as originally scheduled?  After all, I did buy it on Thursday.  Well, a funny thing happened on Friday.  I live near the east end of Superior Street where a lot of road work is going on.  Evidently, while working zealously, the crew accidentally cut some power cables.  I received a kind text from I&M about 10am telling me that the power to my building was off (I had noticed) but would be restored by 3:00pm.  Well, that time came and went and the next estimate was 8pm.  Then it was stretched to 3am.  It did actually come on at 12:38am.  They sent me another text to tell me so.  What puzzled me was that there were lights on all around us.  Only our buildings and the performing arts center and art museum were dark.  On the up side, I spent a blissfully news free day and evening.  Always a silver lining.
