No Power

Ok, our power when out for about an hour this afternoon. This made me ponder about if our family is really ready for an emergency. It was over 100 degrees outside, with no power all day that means no AC, no fans, no computer (to check what was going on), no land line phone (what did we ever do without cell phones?), fridge and freezer was turned off. If this was for a few days our food would go bad, unless we found a way to can it. How would we stay cooled off? After an hour poor Marianne was sweating. Since I had not gotten in the shower yet, we headed to the bathroom to cool off.

We talked about prepardeness in church on Sunday, and what a coincidence that we had an opportunity to really feel if we were prepared. I feel fairly confident that we would be ok, minus the heat issue. It would be great if we had a back up generator to use when the power goes out. Maybe we will add that to our list of things we still need. It will definitly be down the road after we have won the lottery or something! LOL
