when it rains...
I'm just back up.... at home. After I arrived home earlier, Kevin was accompanied by a power company guy. Who handed me a "how to reconnect service" tag, and then disconnected our electric service for non-payment. Three hours and $700 later, we're back up. Sigh.
The 48-hour disconnect notice had been mailed and arrived last week, while I was in Houston. It was still sitting in a pile of unopened mail from last week, sandwiched between real estate flyers and credit card offers.

patgreene hates dealing with bills or finances, so I set up automatic payments for all utilities and payments. In this case, winter bills had been higher than my automatic payment amounts for several months, a balance had accumulated, and no one saw the disconnection notice until it was too late.
Now we'll have to post a deposit, as well... (shakes head).
Back to work, now that the house is back running.
