Looks like the weather forecast is calling for a bit more than partly coudy.
So here in New Milford, I suggest buying extra non perishable food, fill up with gasoline, dig out the long johns, heavy duty socks, 4 or 5 extra blankets per person and make sure radios have batteries, cellphones are charged up and controversial conversations are forgotten. Bad enough no lights, but aruments with no electricity are not fun at all. Candles will help also. If you have a generator, I suggest refilling it before the lights go out. lest we forget, take your shower before bed and fill the bathtub up with water - just in case.
{You used one word which cut us in half. You and I know what that word was and to you I apologize and regret our loss to each other's family.}
I should have remembered the lights will go out because I just loaded up the garage fridge. Maybe the lights won't go out tonight.?.? anybody wanna bet? and btw, devoted readers will not have to guess too hard where I placed the NOISY generator.
Happy New Year all.
