Rationing

One of the biggest disadvantages of the hot season is electricity rationing. Recently there was an announcement on the radio that there will be severe rationing for the next eleven days. Yesterday the electricity was off beginning at 3:00pm and came back on in the middle of the night. I went to a friend's house across town today and she said her power has been off between 6:00am to 4:00pm. I think she is lucky, I would rather have it off during the day than the night. I don't know who decides what parts of town are blacked out and when. I picture someone sitting in a room, pushing buttons and laughing! Our computer batteries don't hold a charge anymore so without electricity, we can't use them. So, if there aren't many blogs or I haven't returned your emails its because of the rationing. Hopefully the power will be back on full time soon.
