Hotel room or a friend both would have been great ideas, Spa. However, no hotel rooms open anywhere close to us (not too many and, with so many people without power, they were all packed) and the "nearby friend" was where I would have gone except I have the dogs and birds. Almost all my close friends have cats. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Friday, January 30, 2009 7:11:50 PM)

Guid! Your powerless! Awwww! Now THAT must SUCK! Water gone too?!! Good God Man, get yourself and pets to a hotel room or a nearby aquaintence ASAP!
Seriously, I hope you get your power back on soon and that you can be back to normal soon. Sending a warm thought!

Oh, you MUST be joking. I'll gladly trade. Still no power, heat or water in my house which sits at a comfortable 30 degrees F. All I can do to try and keep one fireplace going as I am really worried about the birds. Means getting up to stoke the fire (bringing the room to a rosy 45 degrees) every couple of hours during the night. I'll spare you the smell of a house which has had no running water for days. Let's just say it isn't pretty.
Run on batteries here is incredible. Nary a D battery to be found.
Wish warm thought my way folks, I repeat. THIS SUCKS!!! To be continued...
