Power failure (13 hours)

Yesterday the power went out around 3pm. We've had some snow and a LOT of freezing rain the past couple of days. There's about a one-inch coating on everything outside - I can walk on top of the snow and the ice crust does not break. Well I was working from home (since the office building was closed), and then at about 3pm ...BOOM! and the power went out.

Just before 4am this morning the power came back on, which was wonderful, because that meant not only could I fire up the PCs again, but I could also brew some morning espresso! :-)

So here's what we did after the power went out.

Oh jeez, I was just saying to Michael this morning (as I realized we were facing our THIRD straight day of being homebound) "at least our power hasn't gone out".

Looks like you made the best of it, though! :)
