Oh, man... Our power was out for 3-4 hours yesterday. That wasn't a huge deal, and we have a generator (which we've NEVER needed after having it for years). It was really concerning, not knowing how long it would be out or how long the generator would run with the horses' heated water containers, fish tanks, fridge, freezer, furnace... It wasn't even off long enough for us to get serious about fooling with the generator -- which we got years ago following a tropical storm that left us w/o power for days. It must be a magic charm as since we bought it, power is never out for long LOL!!!
This morning, I'm worried that my husband is going to go dig out this elderly man's driveway that he's worked for (odd jobs) since he was a kid. 50 miles away and roads are awful. Really hoping he doesn't try it. He is SO freaking stubborn!!!
