I have not gotten any news from Ray but the news makes it sound like most of the power lines are down in his area so I'll keep believing he's just out of power. I'll call him tomorrow if I don't hear from him.
Was your stove electric? I've never heard of one making an alarm sound, how lucky and blessed you all are. I know what you mean about the fence, we put ours in the first week we were her, we bought it all at PayLess Cash Ways and put it in our self, I don't think it was that expensive. We did Chain link, I think it took two days and we cemented every single pole, its not going anywere and looks as good today as it did 19 years ago.
It does take forever to save money!

>Thank you Donna, I am glad too. I have a lot to lose if this place ever caught fire. The worst actual damage was a badly burnt dinner that night and a stove that is now fried, literally, and no longer safe to use. The alarm on the stove meant that it was 100 degrees above its maximum temp and was still climbing when hubby shut off the breaker. That was a really scary experience I hope never to repeat. If we hadn't caught it when we did we would probably be homeless right now... and would have lost everything.

>The new stove will be delivered Wednesday, so we just have to find microwave meals for a few more days and then the worst will be over. The other hardship is that the money spent on the new stove was the money I had set aside for our dog's new fence. No idea how long its going to take to make that up, but for sure there will now be no fence before next summer. :-( I just have to pray the dog's chain doesn't break again where she gets loose. Her last episode almost left us with a dead dog (almost run over by a car) and took us hours to find her with me in a huge panic and more tears than I've had in a very long time. My dog is my best friend... I would be totally lost without her.

>Thanks again for your concern, it helps to know that others sincerely care. When I think about my friends I think of this group right away, its comforting. :-) Now we have to keep praying for everyone on the East coast. Have you heard anymore from Ray?
