We were without power for just shy of two hours. The boys and I did our best to still get as many tasks done as we could without electricity or water. The only person truly in a panic was Trevor, who had put off a couple of his school assignments that are due tomorrow. Thankfully for him, the power came back on soon enough for him to finish them ... we are not going to talk about the quality.
Even though this was a short-lived incident, it does reinstill in me the desire to get a generator for these sorts of situations. At least we haven't had as many power issues as we had at the last couple of places where we live. Still, it would be nice to be prepared for some future emergency.
Right now, I'm just happy to have our power back on.
