Whoops!

Only half of my sewing room has electrical power. The electrician is on his way. Thank goodness for friends in the construction business. I'll keep you updated.

Update: how can a wire just suddenly break? No clue, but a wire between one outlet and another broke, ergo no power to the remaining 3 on the same circuit. Sparky said he sees it all the time. I am now running on full power. Yipee! More sewing ahead!

  3. How does that happen? (We had - hopefully they are over - electrical problems in our building - we would go "brown" it was very odd... The TV in the bedroom would work, but not the cable & vice versa in the living room!)

  5. That does seem strange that a wire would just spontaneously break. Did Sparky say why that happens? Is Sparky the electrician? Now - I wonder if he got the name Sparky before or after becoming an electrician :))

  6. I had the same question as Pam, an electrician named Sparky? I have no idea how something like that could just suddenly happen, it's not like there's moving parts that could break a wire in the wall... but that's scary! I had NO POWER yesterday, any outlets... but it's more understandable; a tree fell due to high winds and took the wires down with it. All is good today, glad you're operating at full power now, too!

  7. HUH? That's a little scary, that something inanimate can make a move without some human help. Did Sparky have any explanation? Glad you're back in business!
