Yep we got a lotta snow but fortunately lost no power. I have a stand by generator now, if power goes out, 20 seconds later the generator kicks on, so I wasn't fearful of no power. Before I bought the generator we had no power for 5 days, of course it was in the winter, I lost $400 in meats, heated 2 rooms with the 4 burners on the stove, being an ex camper I have camping lanterns for light. I always keep 10 gals of water in the house for "just in case". What I didn't have was no TV, no big deal because I don't watch it anyway, no internet service, that was a BIG deal lol. Every other day I was at the hair salon just to have my hair washed. So I know what it's like to have no power.

The ten inches we got here was just an annoyance, we have plows and salt trucks.
I’m so fed up with this greed before people attitude in this country.
Sigh, off my soap box.
Stay safe everyone |
In my other life lol, I must have been a Boy Scout because I am always prepared, learned years ago from past experiences
