The Nor'easter Yesterday...
Dumped tonnes of rain on us, we didn't have a flood in the basement though, so that was a huge plus!
We lost power for a bit in the evening, and after 2 hours it came back on. We were sooo happy to be able to cook inside and have the house heat back up. The kids went to bed and all of the sudden the wind started howling worse than ever.
Branches and trees had to have been coming down everywhere, this storm was way more fierce than the one we had during Christmas. Brendan and I could barely sleep.
Sure enough we lost power and the internet. It's still not back on. I thought our house was going to blow over last night! It's still intact, a few shingles came off but no major damage. The chickens are okay too.

There is another silver lining to the outage...I used a lot of vote power yesterday, so I've had it charging back up this whole time! In a few hours I'll be at 100%. That pretty much never happens to me, I'm not good at conserving. Sorry but you guys just post too much good shit!
Our house is freezing now, and with the really cold weather on its way tonight, we are over at Brendan's Parent's place. It's so toasty and warm here. They have power but no internet, if (God forbid) the power goes out here they have a wood stove and a generator. We're cooking a big meal and we brought enough stuff to stay here for days.
The Ocean at My In Laws
We even brought the guitars and bass box drum, Kiedis brought his flute, a great jam will happen later, I can't wait! I think brought enough beer to get the job done and I have my 4:20. We have board games galore, I can't think of a better way to spend an outage! (UPDATE!! We finally have the internet back!) Now it's time to catch up on a few happenings and let the Jam begin! Hopefully the power comes back to our home by tomorrow! If not, I hope
and Craig are prepared for a noisy house again haha!
