Day four. Help arrives.
The part came in. The repair guy installed it. We have electrons. Our electrical house is back in order.
This has not been a convenient time to be out of electricity; we’re at work. We’ve compensated, though. We’ve had an extension cord strung in through the dining room window from the utility post outside. The cord gets moved from room to room. First it runs the fan in the bedroom at night. Then it runs the coffee maker in the morning. Then it moves to the computer station all day for me to work. It works. The job is on schedule. It will finish up Friday.
But now; now we’re back on shore power. A $25 part (plus $35 shipping to get it to us as fast as possible). We can run everything else at once again. We get to plug everything in to the proper outlets. We get to put away the extension cord.
Life is good. Life on the road.
