Thank goodness for the fireplace.

I have a total electric house.

My heating is electric, our air conditioning is electric plus all our appliances are electric. I think the last couple items are a bit redundant when it comes to being electric, but I’m frustrated. The electricity went out in our beach house last week, while in a blizzard. As I said, without electricity, I didn’t have any heat. I sighed, frustrated about the lack of electricity, but after that I remembered I had a fireplace. I brought in wood plus put it on the hearth. I had everything all set up before I opened the flue. I wanted to make sure the fire lit suddenly. I went to light the fire plus I realized I had an electric starter. The fireplace, which I had never tried to use, was honestly an electric insert. Looked around the house, searching for every blanket I could find. I had to figure out how to stay sizzling until the power came back on. I called the local hotel to see if they had power. It seemed savor every site in city was without electricity plus there wasn’t any heat. I couldn’t travel too far in a blizzard, so I couldn’t even drive to our mom’s house. All I could do was wait out the blizzard plus hope the electricity plus heating would come on before our pipes began to freeze or I became a popsicle. I could only hope that neither of these things happened. I kept praying the power would come back on plus so would our gas furnace.
