boom BOOM and out go the lights
What is even more fun than being sick with kids? Being sick with kids without power, which means
- no lights
- no central heat
- no water (showers, laundry, dishes, hand-washing to prevent spread of illness)
- no vcr/tv
- no oven
- no phones
- no nightlights for kiddos
- no bedtime/naptime music
We have a nice woodstove in the living room and a gas stove, so I can cook, as long as the menu is boiled or fried. We are reading lots of books by the fire; this is cozy and fun.

Man, it sounds like it's rough going! I hope you all are feeling better soon!

I posted a minute ago. Didn't look like it would post...;o(
So again..
can you go to a relatives house or they all in town as well?
Without going into a super long story, I can say BTDT as well & I totally agree with you. Take care, Alison
Sorry to hear you've been sick, that was quite the storm wasn't it? I enjoy power outages actually, but usually they only last an hour or so, this one was nearly 24 hours for us. Glad to have the lights back on!
I think you emailed me once, but I lost track of you. Found you through technorati again, so wanted to say, "Hi Neighbor!"
Sounds like a good time to pitch a tent in the living room and "camp out"
