Oh, I sooooo know the feeling. I realized how dependent I'd become on our source of electricity when there was a crazy storm here in our part of Ireland one day. And I mean: CRAYZAYYYY! It came out of nowhere, like a tornado, destroyed the roof of the petrol station nearby (we were underneath it with our car just before that happened), people were blown off their socks, we saw car plates and bin covers fly past... And then, as quickly as it came, it went completely wind-still. Really the weirdest thing... When we got home, 15 miles up the road, they hadn't seen or felt a thing...
But they had had a power outage for about 3 seconds. Not long after, the electricity went. I went to bed at 10 p.m. (NEVER happens...), didn't even have candles in the house...so no lights. The next day at 11 am it came back on... Never been so relieved LOL.
That sounds pretty intense!
It's been one of the calmest days in while, so I don't think the weather is to blame - the crazy stirs last month took the power out constantly, but it was back within minutes.
Candles.... probably should get a bag of those tomorrow.
Might as well go to bed, 00:45 pretty early for me!
Haha, yeah, it was the best (and only) thing to do for me. Was well rested the next day!
