I am here, finally!! Oh and OP too. Our power went out around 12:30am last night from the ice storm and didn't come back on until late this afternoon. We live in the country, so that meant no water, no furnace, no electricity, no flushing toilets, but worst of all, no sump pump. Dh and I were bailing water every 1/2 hour trying to keep up so that basement wouldn't flood and ruin the furnace, water heater, freezer and well pump. We did it! Everything is okay, but we are so tired... Oh, and Little Guy is running a fever of 103. When it rains, it pours.
