*blink*...*blink blink* umm, 6 ..6 weeks? ye GODS!!
well, i suppose we'd have been ok, but dang.. i am jsut glad more didna die. i beleive there was one elderly couple that was overcome in their sleep. their heat source gave off carbon monoxide*?* and they passed. i'm surprised more didna pass.
Gotta give a BIG ole BOOYAH! to the AEP people, i mean they realy did work their tales off and in the worst weather conditions immaginable. *HUG* to them!!
i am telling you, tea lights, tealight candle lanterns and a huge mirror? we had enough heat to keep us comfortable. it was weird, my door faces east. when i went out go out after a few days? had to literly basdh my screen door...it was frozen shut!!! but that was all to the good, the ice coated all the nooks an crannies, so ended up sheilding us from the wind & cold. i mean my car was one of say 4 in the entire lot, and as far as i could see? mine was the only apt lit up. oh, did i mention how much i love & adore tealights and oil lamps? heck yeah!! i have 4 oil lamps now, and am luvvin them to pieces!! they put out light and heat, and use very little oil. wow. just wow. all my anal retentiveness "what if this happens, we might need such an such" sure did cover our butts big time!! my bestest freind also brought me 4 gas cylinders for my tiny gas grill. i would have figured a way to use it if need be!! well gotta go..
CIAO!
