Depends on when it happens... if it happens in the middle of the night, I'm gonna go back to sleep laugh

During the day, put on the battery operated fans and chill out with as few clothes on as possible. eek

Eat the stuff in the fridge first, then if the power outage starts going on too long then it's time to fire up the grill and start bbq-ing the stuff in the freezer.

(Block Party!!!!)

At night, open some windows (with screens) put the fan in the window and go to sleep just like when I stayed with my grandmother as a child.

I'll use up the battery powered lights first saving the hurricane lamps (lamp oil) for last ditch lighting because of the heat and fire risk.

One day I'll get my generator (paying off debt = first priority).
