House on fire

Well…I did mention that I had a tree fall on my power line and ripped it off the side of the house starting a small fire and melting some of the vinyl siding…I was downstairs on the bike and it went black so I came running up the stairs to hear the loud crackling from the resulting electrical short…the power line was on the ground smoking so I called 911 and all kinds of police, fire, and Consumers energy trucks showed up…and of course it was a cold, raining Sunday when this happened so getting anyone to come out and fix it was going to wait at least a day…but all of the electrical folks who I called Monday said they were all busy and it would be two weeks before they could come out…but then I discovered an unlikely company..Service Professor…who came right out and started working on it but after he was done, consumers had to come back and do the last connection and there were trips to the city hall for permits and all kinds of other bullshit…cost 2,700 bucks that insurance covered 2,450 when I have a 1,000 dollar deductible…still can’t figure that out…oh, well
