When we first moved into our Double wide on our new acreage we had a winter storm that put us out for 10 days! Since we are ALL electric we had no heat, water, and couldn't cook etc. Since we had a parrot and a fish tank leaving to stay with someone else wasn't an option. Having a small fireplace we shut all the doors and moved the sofa closer to the fireplace with a cot in front of that. Whoever woke up during the night had to stoke the fireplace. I have always had an oil lamp at the ready cause even in the old row house we did have outages with no light. For water we went to relatives to fill big barrels for the animals and flushing the toilets. Hot meals were eaten out and a radio was used for music, news, or just plain sounds of any kind. We survived it all and I could do it again but hope it isn't in God's plans! LOL
