We had a sudden power outage late Sunday night. It was awkward, grabbing flashlights and lighting candles. L finished her homework with a lantern. We ended up setting the travel alarm so that we would be sure to get up on time the next morning. We have a gas fireplace in the basement, so we reasoned that if it got unbearably cold, we could use that as a source of heat. The power returned at 12.20am. (Whew!) The good side of this is that we were able to watch the season finale of 'The Amazing Race' before the outage.
This is the cutest video:

Oh my goodness! I am glad you guys stayed warm enough.
I was just thinking the other day that we haven't had a power outage in The Hague yet. Not sure what we'd do if we had multiple days without electricity. Brr!!
That C'mon man is very funny!
Travel alarm , what a good idea!
Oh Christine, please please join in again. I'd love to be able to send you something if you win..but you have to post something to get in the drawing! If nothing else, just think what an extra drop of creativity can do. It is infectious and can open up possibilities in other areas in life one may not have even thought of yet.
If you enter the co-op again, and post that icon, you're already going to get an extra entry nd jsut think the odds are a lot better than most drawings. Over time, you'd be bound to win something. I'd love to send something personalised to one of my most loyal from way back blog followers. You rock!
Christine, glad the blackout didn't last all night....thank heavens for your gas fireplace in the basement.
That was an interesting video about identity theft on Facebook....some people seem to be too trusting or just like to say they have lots of friends on Facebook!
:)
