Whew! I'm so glad you're okay. I was starting to get worried.
Yes, dealing with no power is so hard. I know people did without it for all of history before the 20th century, but then their life expectancy was a lot lower, probably because they didn't have lights and fridges and computers and air conditioning and so on. Right? :-)))
The cold for three days was horrible. We had a fireplace but it wasn't much use, not being designed for heating a big house or cooking dinner. My little kitty Dannie spent most of the time curled up in my lap trying to keep warm, and I was scared for her. Then the lights came on and she jumped up off my lap and ran around all excited. So cute. :-)))
