Subject: Hi - it's my turn this week. Our wifi is down due to a windstorm Friday night. It's a bit difficult to do on my phone. Meanwhile, here's a quote from a few years ago that I had emailed to myself so I could do this while on vacation.

"QOTD for Thursday, September 1, 2011 The following quotation is from An Echo In The Bone by Diana Gabaldon. Chapter 18, Pulling Teeth. Copyright 2009. All rights Reserved. " 'You're looking for someone? A Frenchman?' I lifted the bowl of bloodstained teeth andbegan to pick through it, affecting non-chalance.'A man named Claudel. He was born in Paris - in a brothel,' he added, with a faint air of apology for using such an indelicate term in my presence. 'He would be in his early forties now - forty-one or -two, perhaps.' "

[> [> [> Oh no! Glad they got your power back. Sometimes it takes days and days when there’s so much damage. We’ve been so lucky in the northeast part of PA this year. As I knock on wood - two short very cold days but no snow to speak of at. -- Kathy in PA, Wed, February 08 2023, 7:47:17
