Lost power for 30hrs. It was 49F in the house this morning (the cats
were trying to share our body heat . We didn't eat much yesterday
(too cold to get out from under the covers for long) so went out for
lunch. We're on the SW side of Atlanta so only had 1/4" of ice and a
dusting of snow on top. the roads were fine. When we came home,
about 4:30, the power had been on for about 45min and the house was
warm(er). Back to work tomorrow.

49F is cold no matter where you're from, unless you live in an igloo
somewhere. I'm feelin' for ya brother. God bless my woodstove. We ran out
of fuel oil earlier and the house got into the 50's. That was cold. But -
the wood stove kept it from getting worse.
