I lost power at my home at 4:30 on Friday. It didn't come on until 1:30 PM today (Monday). That makes 69 hours without heat or any other kind of power (thanks to a 10-14" snowfall). Thank God for gas logs that helped stave off the cold and a camp stove by which to heat up food. As of right now I still don't have internet access, even though the power has come on. I access the internet via a cable service that has not yet been restored. I am writing this at a coffee shop. Blessings and peace to all regular readers of this blog.
