Sure hope this doesn't last long. And my thermometer is set at 65 F. Lower at night. Only thing I have going is Internet and one light. Doing my part. Bet my electric bill this time will be sky high.
We've had the blackout twice, today. The only good thing is that they only last (here) for 15 minutes.
On another note, something in our well froze. We don't have water and can't use the bathroom.
