-Make Andrew's graduation announcement
Almost everything on my list needed the computer to get done. Down near the bottom of my list was "decorate Josie's birthday cake." I had baked the cake the day before and I had already researched how to decorate it. All I needed to do was actually finish it. So that's what I did in the half-darkness of my dining room while I waited for the power to come back on.
Funny how the power goes out when it's stormy so you have little natural light to make up for the lack of electricity. Oh, well. I think my cake turned out alright, anyway. Josie liked it so much that she didn't want to have birthday candles ruin it. We sang to her without candles.
