Reply #6: we lost power for just over 7 days total

[Broken_Hero]

we lost it friday the 12th at 10pm....the power came back on monday night, for 26hrs or so...the power went off again wednesday morning at 11am...then it came back on thursday night around 10pm...then went off again around 9am friday morning. The power came back on again, monday the 22nd around 3:30pm, and has been on ever since...I hope/pray the power stays on! I took the damn hottest shower ever today...I finally feel clean...

We had a wood stove, and we had that for heat, and we also cooked on it...we had my mother/father in law over the whole time...and about the only thing that etched on me, was the stir crazy/cabin fever aspect of the situation.

We had a ton of fallen tree's around us, we live out in the country in SW Missouri, and tree's were falling like W's approval rating...I'm glad that you are safe though! On a side note, we had the national guard out in our area, and they even stopped by to check on us...I believe they did a house to house check on everyone....
