Ok...Typical DAY for ARC girl....Thursday July 24 2008 Schedule looks like this:
9:30-11am Volunteer subcommittee meeting at Jackson Lab for MDI Pan flu committee
12:30-4pm Ellsworth office
6pm Peninsula Ambulance Board meeting.
THEEEEN.....the ARC Board of Directors decides to have the Staff interview Patrick Adams for the Executive Directors Job...ok...Cancel Jax Lab meeting. Meanwhile find out that there is a Hancock County meeting regarding Heating crisis at 10am ...nope can't attend that either...have to go to Bangor for the Board meeting.
So, get up, drying hair..power goes out..damn...put hairdryer in car and head to Ellsworth office to get ready for Bangor meeting...phone rings.,.power out in Ellsworth and MDI...hmmm! Call Ralph Pinkham EMA director, he's on his way to EMA, doesn't know whats going on. Phone rings again...power out in Bangor, all of Penobscot county....Hmmmm! Head to EMA....Ralph is talking to the Hydro and MEMA in Augusta...Huge outage...ALL Bangor Hydro Customers are off line! Ok, so we are not going to Bangor today...that meeting is cancelled!!
Governor comes on radio stations that are on the air to say they are working on the issue.
Power comes up in Ellsworth first. Yeah!!!
Ralph and I decide to attend heating meeting...the 'third option' I had for the day..but didnt think I could attend because of Jax lab meeting, and Board meeting. Back to Ellsworth office at 12 noon, by 2pm...TORNADO watches!!!!! All the counties completely surrounding Hancock county...OK!! Me and toto know where to go, the basement at the courthouse!! Its not here in front of these floor to ceiling windows I can tell you that!!
Hillary calls...says "I want a schedule" so we can figure out where to be, how to dress, if we get a shower, and our hair done in the morning?????? Yeah Right!
Welcome to our world...
No Day is ever the same, and NO DAY is ever as you planned!!!
You can not keep a neat date book...so don't even try!!!!!!!!!!!! For some of us type A's this is a very hard thing to get over!!!!

Amusing....and sorry I lost you, and hope you got my text about NOT being sucked up to Oz, just lost cell service on "the island" somewhere between Seal Hbr. and Richard Este's!
I had to give the "little Munchkin" here at home the skinny on just where to go in case "Miss Gulch" rode in on her wicked bike and decided to take 17 Canterbury Road with her...THANK GOD I did...he said he would have gone and hidden in his closet!! Ok...ARC Girl KNOWS this is the worst place to go! I said, NO...no one will find you...go stand in the door frame downstairs between the pantry and the fam. room...Thankfully, this did not play out!!! Dodged that one!!!
