Thank Dog for wireless internet access! Power outages stink!

We lost power here about 1.5 hours ago and there's no estimate on when it'll be back on. I've got the generator going so that we can at least run our phones, which is very important this time of year, and a few lights. Had to sit down with the door cracked in the restroom so as to keep it all contained.

Fortunately one of my saleswomen had her laptop here for an upgrade by the IT guys so I can at least pass the time between phone calls.

And to think we need to run credit card transactions the old fashioned way with the imprinter. I guess it's a good thing we didn't throw it and all of the old slips out!
