@wherever_we_go – Not an original list … but I thought it very funny! We are going on two weeks without electric (except the glorified extension cord our next-door neighbor has so graciously run to our house to power the refrigerator and a small window a/c that cools our bedroom) … I got really cranky around day 11, but I’m feeling better now. LOL
