Know Where Your Main Power Switch Is!

Safety note to self: Know where all of your Main's and Shut Off's are! Had a small electrical scare tonight. Apparently tree trimmers or a branch hit the above ground power line going from the pole to our home. Made for a weird evening at home as my husband was Mr. Mom tonight. A special thank you to PG&E for their very prompt arrival and diligent work to ensure we had power. Our son was already asleep and luckily is of the age where he doesn't require much, but it made me think of the many who are on oxygen and/or have durable medical equipment that runs off of electricity.

Always make sure you, your family and caregivers know where the power Main's/Shut Off's are for your home. We are lucky and only our ancient answering machine died. It passed a mere 3 days before the one at Costco does on sale that we have a coupon for. How's that for luck?

Also, always have a back up plan if you do have durable medical equipment that needs to run off of electricity. A generator or other is necessary.

No updates on Baby Kaleb from his surgeries today. I am in full faith and prayer that all went well. I can only imagine how totally spent the Schwade's and extended family are. My very best to them!

Wishing all of you a fabulous weekend!

Love,
NM
