Yesterday, at 6AM, the power went out for ten hours. It was a good thing. CFE (La Comisión Federal de Electricidad) was installing new poles, new lines and a new transformer and wow, what a difference a day makes.
The power has always been sketchy here with dramatic fluctuations everyday. Some days, things like the fridge or microwave would barely crawl along. And everyone has big surge protectors. About a year ago, one of the neighbors circulated a petition for a new transformer that we all signed. Well, look at this!
The difference is so noticeable. Everything electric is just purring. Gracias, CFE, who showed up with a huge crew and got the job done quite quickly.
