Power restored! Didn't suffer much from Ida, week's loss of business at the bookshop is the worst of it. My heart goes out to those south of us; this storm was a lot! Got a ton of reading done. I'm useless in the heat so my husband worked in our yard, helped the neighbors, and I kept folks in beverages and read. We spent the worst of the storm in a hallway - pallet became a pile of blankets shortly thereafter and the kitten proclaimed it a throne.
