And we have teething toddler and my wife is pregnant.
. I feel for y’all.

My newborn brother came home the day after Hurricane Betsy. (1965)

The power was out for three weeks. Miserable for everyone.

One man in the neighborhood had a generator and made ice cubes. He would bring Mama a bowl of them every afternoon. ( Ziploc bags had not been invented yet)

She could make 1 pitcher of ice water per day. There were 8 of us and each got a glass of chilled water. It was great.

Good Luck and I hope y’all’s power comes on soon.
