BANG - We're Hit

The clock had just struck midnight when there was a terrible BANG! Suddenly I was was awake! Not just half asleep, but wide awake as I hear a thunder and saw flashes outside. A storm had just fired its first salvos overhead and we were hit. It was a huge storm, the biggest so far in the 2 years that we have been living here.

The electricity was restored to the neighbourhood at 3am in the morning except our house we remained in the dark. As first light peeped over the horizon, I went outside to survey the damages but there was nothing structural. At 5pm this afternoon, our power was finally restored. We had an direct lightning hit to the house and the Smart Meter outside took the brunt. 

Now with the lights back on, we found that the Vuma ONT box, router, 2 TVs, intercom system, gate motor, the alarm system, and the dishwasher was taken out by the lightning.

Breathing in Darkness

Have you ever lay in bed alone in the darkness and just listened to your breathing?

Breathe in

Breathe out

Wait what was that?
And suddenly you wide awake as you hold your breath so that you can hear the sound of breathing in and out continue in the quietness of nothing.

So now you know it is there and now it knows too!

Hello Darkness, my old friend.
