So Ysabella is in time-out. She started updated the blog while I was out walking with Daddy. I graciously let her finish.
Then....
Saturday night the house got struck by lightening! (Ysabella says no it didn't it was a tree in the back yard.) Anyway,
1) lightening struck the tree
2) the surge traveled down the tree to the ground
3) dug a 3" wide and approximately 4" deep trough from the edge of the tree to under the back deck
4) the surge hit some rock or brick or paving stone under the deck and exploded up through the deck
5) blew a hole in the deck sending part of the deck to the roof top
6) blowing out the electricity until Dad flipped the circuit breaker
7) messed up the airconditioning unit --we have no air...in July...in Alabama-- (Mommy cussed when she said it)
8) killed the downstairs DVD player
9) messed Mommy's tv in her room
10) messed up the electricity in our room (no lights) and the basement (no lights)
11) and worst of all, it killed our computer at home (I am dictating this to Mommy over the phone)
We barely survived yesterday with no air. Mommy had to buy two more fans. It is hot. We are with Grandmama, in the living room, with 3 fans on us trying to keep it cool. Mommy says if she can't get it fixed by tomorrow she's moving us to a hotel.
(p.s. You know Mommy took pictures. Check back later to see the damage.)

So glad to hear everyone is safe, if HOT. I hope you can get everything up and running soon. Hotel sounds like a good idea if not. Lots of good vibes coming your way from the Red Room.
What a bit of excitement!
