After the hurricane, with no power for 13 days! we fired up the grill, as did our neighbors, and cooked anything that was thawing in the freezer so we could save as much as we could. If your temps are staying low enough, put some of the stuff outdoors, inside the grill, inside coolers, anything you can find to keep the critters out.<BR/>I know you are sick of it. You have every right to have a bitchy day or to sit down and have a good cry.<BR/>Wish I could help you!<BR/>{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}GoldenTrackshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05630361374271288995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29776177.post-32903996334762352822008-12-16T21:45:00.000-05:002008-12-16T21:45:00.000-05:00Every time I hear something about parts of the Nor...Every time I hear something about parts of the Northeast still being without power, I think of you and hope it goes back on really soon. after one of the big hurricanes years ago, we were without power for 2 weeks, but it was more of an annoyance because it was late summer. We could open windows, fan ourselves, BBQ outside and it was no problem eating stuff that didn't have to be cooked. I can't imagine how hard (and potentially dangerous) it must be to have no power when it's so cold and you can't go anywhere to get away from it and you need hot food to warm up, but you can't cook it. I agree with Dianne - use your blogland friends to bitch and moan and complain and say nasty things about your nasty neighbors.

Kick and scream all you want! If nothing else, it will keep you warm. Do all the dogs fit in the bed with you at night?<BR/><BR/>I really want to ask if there is anything you need, but by the time the mail could get it there, you'll have your lights back.

Go ahead and scream and bitch all you want - you need to have a place to vent! I'm sending hugs your way. I wish it was some heat or some running water or a big, kick-ass, whole-house generator!Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15874368719000440871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29776177.post-18047225897746617142008-12-16T15:21:00.000-05:002008-12-16T15:21:00.000-05:00That's almost heartless of your neighbors.

(and i can completely understand) 2 years ago on dec 3rd we lost our power for 5 1/2 days, it sucked as almost every neighbor had a generator and we were left in the dark. We did have water and a natural gas fireplace, but without power the fan did not blow the heat out, and our wood fireplace we did not dare use having no idea when it was last cleaned before we bought the house. This past friday night after losing power 7 times that day we went and bought a generator, no more camping in the house totally roughing it! my mom lives just north of your ice mess....good luck to you! Sucks, especially during the holidays.Turtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01851819627750022788noreply@blogger.com
