We're pretty lucky, it's 20F here, power is on, and it's warm in the house.
But you folks got me thinking, what could I do if the power was out for a long time?
We have 2 snakes, they'll die if it gets too cold.
Knock wood, that hasn't ever happened, but what if?
However, I'm not about to invest thousands of dollars to guard against an event that hasn't ever happened in the 30-something years we've lived here.
Guess I'd be looking for a motel, but it'd be a bit tricky, we also have 3 cats.
Gaaah, I could worry and worry and worry.
Or stick it in the closet with the eventualities I hope don't come, and grab my ostrich suit.
Given past history, knocking again, hard, there are lots more likely things that'd be a lot worse and a lot harder to cope with.
