Yeah, on top of it all we're all sick, we were taking care of two neighbors houses while they were gone, my wife's parents (who were gonna host Christmas) for covid, and we had to cancel our semi-annual boxing day party with good friends. So we were a little funned out.
Just remember, the adventure isn't usually fun while it's happening, it's more about outdoing your buddies at story time when they bust out their tale of daring do, lol.
We've got an excellent woodstove and small and mighty little generator, so we kept the fridge mostly cold (we froze big yogurt containers to add to the cold mass of the fridge). We are lucky to have these things, for sure. There are still people who won't get power back until Friday or maybe even Saturday
