No Power, AGAIN

We woke again this (at 4am) morning, to no power! They shut off power to the whole town to do repairs! Such fun. It's still really dark outside at that hour. Luckily we use the alarm on the cell phone. BUT NO COFFEE!!! We do have a gas cooktop and managed to heat some water for tea. (of course we had to light it as it's electronic ignition). Warmed a pan of water for Frank to get ready for work, as the on demand water heater is also electrically started. Since the outage last week, I have purchased candles and more batteries for the torch (flashlight). We managed pretty well...
Frank was ready for work on time, Derek was here on time... Lee had to be wakened.
Heaven only knows what Frank has in his lunch cooler, as I packed by candlelight!


PS, no sign of the snake YET!
