Getting a little cold here :)

Our power has been on and off since yesterday. It's 22 degrees outside and the amount of time our power is on isn't long enough to heat the house. Now, we just heard that our village power station is going to be shut down for 6 hours this afternoon and evening.

We pay about 1/3rd the price of people in the villages next to us because our village buys electricity in bulk. But damn...with the power going off as often as it does, it is almost not worth the savings.

All 3 fireplaces are fired up and at least keeping a few rooms warm. Our dogs are all huddled around one of the fireplaces.
