Okay, where did everything go?

Any explanation as to why we have blank white screens with type scattered across it? And were is the #$%^#@@#$$$% spellchecker? Can't blame the storm, although I'd like to. We floated with friends in the pool until 5-ish, then had our dinner canceled -- feel better soon, [livejournal.com profile] tia_tarina!

Rain started a bit after 6:00 pm, and we were hammered for hours. Don't know the exact inch count, but the main excitement was a lightning bolt flash that POPPED as it hit -- very close, maybe the side yard. The new doorbell rang! I hope the Shumard oak is all right -- it's been hit before.

The computer was off by then, and seems fine. The stereo, however, appears to be toast. Bah, humbug. I need that for my few remaining LMT clients, so the boom box comes out Monday.

Writing notes up a storm. At this point, I think writing is the main thing. What I'm writing I can worry about later. This is an odd old book I wasn't quite ready to write, ten-fifteen years ago. Maybe now is the time -- and in snips and pieces I may need to piece together like a quilt.

A friend wrote three books that way, so...it's possible.

Must supershock pool and try to get some sleep!

And Zzzz to you all.

NOTE: Shumard and doorbell still with us. However -- the garage door opener and the hot tub heater seem to be fried. We'll need a totally new door opener -- not sure about the hot tub yet.
