Yay! The lights are back on at our house! After five days in the dark, it was a much welcomed surprise (a day or two earlier than the predicted comeback) to come home to the comforting hum of power. I wanted to share a few things I learned this week when I was without electricity:

• Laundry can wait. Ice cream can’t (unless you like yours to be like soup)

• We have a gas water heater – whew!

• Cell phones can really come in handy

• I never knew I could enjoy a simple cold glass of milk so much

• I really don’t need to check my email 24/7???

• This was just an inconvenience. My thoughts go out to the REAL hurricane victims.

Thanks to everyone for your kind comments! It’s good to be in touch again with all of you in the online world. FFTV will be back in full blogging-force next week with lots of exciting things coming your way! Stay tuned…

Hey everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know the remnants of Hurricane Ike blew through Columbus, Ohio yesterday and left the FatFighterTV “studios” with no power. So, I am online right now for just a bit at my brother’s house.

I so wish I had one of these people-powered exercise machines that I told you about earlier this month. I would even settle for a Fender Blender because I totally miss my daily chocolate-banana-peanut butter protein shakes!

Hope to be back to regular posting soon!
