We were out of Power for almost 5 days!
I have to admit- it wasn't awful... being unplugged was a good thing in many ways, but man oh man we sure were we happy to see the lights come on! Aside from a flooded basement we managed pretty well. It was fun to play games at night- and we all slept great ( except for cold noses)
I kept on being grateful - heres why!
Winnie gives me so much joy and plenty of cuddling.
We never lost hot water !
I played a little bit on my recorder. My old wooden alto from when I was 12.
We were able to cook on our stovetop.
I made a pot roast!
Candles are the best. Flashlights too.
This truly saved us.
Burned straight for 5 days and kept us toasty!
So today its clean up, laundry, shopping and dealing with wet stuff in basement.
Sun is shining!
I hope people are getting back to normal..I really feel for those directly on the coast -they got hammered.
WOW I just realized- today is the 44th day of the year- I am right on schedule!

You actually had a lot to be grateful for! One thing is a husband who thinks outside the box and makes sure you have a nice fireplace and cooktop!!! GO AL! Let's hope we are not tested in this way for a loooooong long time!
