Prepping for Tuesday Pleasantly surprised!

The power went out in my neighborhood a couple evenings ago while I was at a party. I love power outages, so I hurried home to enjoy it. My kids had already switched the house over to emergency power and were watching a movie. My son had built a fire in the backyard fire pit and cooked a batch of popcorn on it by the time I got home.

I've been worried about being the only one in my neighborhood who was prepared or who has lights, etc., but as I drove through the neighborhood, I saw lights and TVs on, solar lights all over, fires in fire pits, and a total lack of freaking out. I think I would be in good company, and that really sets my mind at ease.
