We are now the proud owners of a sump pump with a battery backup. And we are definitely thinking about adding a generator to the mix
And while I am here, I would like to make it clear that I was relaying a story about trying to keep my spirits up, and not in any way implying that my difficult day is remotely comparable to a tragedy in which 29 people lost their lives. Today I am very sore, but thankful for restored power and a community in which we can share our thoughts, especially as they relate to Gordon Lightfoot, even if just in a slightly ironic fashion.
We are having a similar weather day today, but fortunately no ice. You're right, Char, this is unacceptable, but eventually it will pass. I think.
