I did stay inside as much as possible but it was still pretty cold in my little piece of the east coast. We are lucky as we have a fireplace but not every house does. Despite our fireplace, I used four blankets and layered my clothing. Attic rooms aren't usually insulated. . .

I saw earlier today on TV that many people are still without power and we still have gas rationing. The three hour+ wait isn't bad in a car with heat. Standing in line with a gas can is a teeny bit different though. One of the gas stations made coco for us all, nice guy.

And people use electric can openers? I have a hand crank one, works just fine and helps prevent carpal tunnel since you use your wrist to work it.[/end rambling]
