Power?

How many of you were without power last night?

I used the opportunity to make a list of what I am short on if I am without power for an extended time.

1. We knew where all of the candles and flashlight were. The flashlight had good batteries in them. +1

2. Our big generator was ready to roll. +1

3. Our spare gas containers were just about empty. -2

4. We have gas water heaters. Could bathe and wash dishes. +1

5. Have the items to bake a box oven. +1

6. Didn't have said box oven ready to use. -1

7. Had extra blankets for boys' rooms. +1

8. Cell phones were charged, just in case. +1

9. Need adapters for the big appliances to run to the generator. -1

10. Enjoyed each others company visiting and reading scriptures. Survived well without electronic devices, computers and television. +10

Was anyone else without power? Did it make you think??
