I hate losing power too. There is no way to really “prevent” it either, unless one is some type of survivalist, with 10 generators or solar panels, or a lifestyle that doesn’t need electricity, it’s a rather helpless feeling.
The last time we had a hurricane in the Baltimore area, I lost power for 7 days! In that time, I almost burned my house down with candles. ugh
I hate extreme weather. I’m blaming Al Gore for all of this until someone tells me different.
Oh, and there’s plenty of bottled water in the stores around here. I’m not too worried about the water though; last time we had a hurricane we didn’t loose water service.
My boss has generators at his home and here in the office...so there will be no off day for me!
Actually, I am off on Monday. Guess I’ll have to go out, fill up my gas tank, get water, ice and stock up on wine.
