Normalcy returns, somehow

NORMALCY somehow returned to our home last night with the restoration of electric power--but no thanks to the Casureco II crew who promised to return Tuesday but did not. This, after fixing the main line to Grandview two days ago, thereby bringing service back to most of the housing units there--except us and our neighbors.

Each one of us had to pay P250 to a barangay electrician to have our broken lines fixed.

Anyway, it was bliss to see our three-year old Nokie finally sleep soundly through the night, sparing me and my wife of our post-Milenyo troubles. It took most everyone quite sometime to readjust last night: had not my mother-in-law not turned the TV on, my daughters--Nokie included--would have all but forgotten about the sometimes annoying Kris Aquino and her TV show Deal or No Deal. Or better still, forget that we had a TV set dominating our small living room. But readjustment came in a zip. In no time, they were already shuttling channels between Captain Barbell and Super Inggo.

By now, as I write this, I assume they should already be bracing to see how Pasion de Amor will eventually end up (if it is not done yet).
