The Flu, the Power, The headache......

The flu has taken over the male part of my family. All 3 boys have it. Natalie and I are just doing our best not to get sick. Poor Boston's eyes are swollen up so huge it looks like he had a good beating.
We got snow last night. We have about an inch on the ground right now but its just raining and making it slushy for me to try and drive in at midnight tonight. I made it out of our driveway last night, I only slid backwards once. yay for me! I got to work and noticed that all the lights were off. But Jake's car was there. I saw him in the window and then noticed that he had candles burning on our workstations. Then the lightbulb went on in my head. The power is out.
Great.
We called the PUD from my cell phone (which was charged, OMG its a miracle!) and were informed that power was not going to be restored to that area of peshastin until 4 am which is when I normally get off work.
Great.
I got to go home and he decided to stick it out. I sure hope that all is well tonight so I can actually get some work done. Driving home I pretty much slid down my driveway and ended up in the lawn while trying not to plow into the garage door. ( I do have mad skills you know) But anyhow....I made it home safe and sound back to my Flu ridden family. What happens next is anyones guess. =)
