As my teacher/daughter arrived home after school she found a "problem"!! The telephone company AT&T had been working in her backyard corner where the "box" is and had clipped the main electrical power line. .. Evidently power comes into house in three lines and one had been severed. So not all power was off... just the high voltage stuff!
Her husband had been coping with the workers... calling to notify the electrical company etc. Power company workers arrived and shut off all the power without telling my daughter and her family and also blocked the driveway with their truck !! No one could leave !!
I think that made my s-i-l angry ... and the truck was moved. He drove off to pick up something for dinner since he was told repairs would take about 1.5 hours ! And the electric company workers were angry with the phone company workers for creating this mess!!
Through all of this... lots of men digging in the backyard.. no electricity etc. their dog was frantic... stranger danger... protect the family etc. Poor Moxxie !!
Finally everything was fixed... dinner was brought home... dog was reassured by an empty back yard... and life resumed its normal routine!!

Things like that are an ordeal.
Oh gosh... That's awful. I'm glad it got fixed.
