A Rainy Day Surprise

  In today's blog I will be talking about one of my expirences that could've happened to you to, or did happen. I just want to note that this was real.
 It was a regular day, I woke up and it was raining, not hard but soft. My mother and I were making breakfast. As my sister, brother and dad were watching a movie (I know they didn't bother to help us make breakfast). As we turn on the stove and crack the egges, we hear something buzzing. All of a sudden all the lights turn off and so does the tv. My dad immediately says what happened. My mom and I turn the switch off and back on but it doesn't work. She goes outside, while I'm playing with the switches trying to make it turn on (which probably not the best idea but I was barely 8). When I was playing with the switches the light turn back on but for one second and turns back off. My mom thought that it had turned back on and asks if it did because she saw a little shock on the power lines. I went to go see but it didn't happened, until the next 10 seconds. And I see the electrical strike, my mom got scared and held me back. We called the LA DWP and while we were calling and ambulance beat us to it and came. Although they did exactly nothing ( I know they can't do anything) we waited for 2 hours till the electricity came back. This has been the second time it happened to me. The first was at night, and I was home alone with my sister doing homework. And trust me I was so sacred, there was total darkness. Well then that is it for today's blog and if this happened to you, I know how you feel.
