I like it. Dark themes are not my first choice, but I like the crisp, clean lines.  :thumbup:

Oh! Thank God!

#WaterWorld!
Oh! Thank God for our linemen and others who work in this miserable weather restoring our service!  :thumbup:

Sunday at about 4:45 AM our power went out and we've had some adventures in the hours from then until now! It came on about 45 minutes ago.
So, we've been freezing our asses off, of course, so I brought my propane shop heater into the living room and it was a great help, except for the smell, now it will take a week or more for the odor to go away. Last night I went out to pick up some sandwiches and an extra bottle of propane (same size as you would use on a grill) and at the first store my debit card was rejected! No way that should happen, but it did, so I told the lady to just cancel that transaction and we could use my credit card. She could not get the cancellation to work and so she finally gave up! Hope this debit will not show up on my card after all, it will need some watching for the next week or three. At the next store down the street used the same debit card with no issues.   :o

Our furnace has been running full blast for this whole time now and it's finally starting to warm up a little in here. (63° currently)
We've lost some food, the damage will be accessed later this evening.

Glad things are getting back to normal. Here's a tip for when this happens again in the winter. Put everything you can from the fridge/freezer in a good box or something secure, metal is best. Then stick it outside in the cold. Something strong with help protect it from the animals. Since you have a shed/tool room that might work or build something to hold such things in for an event like that.

I used to have a low roof years ago and would stick my food outside on it through my bedroom window to keep it cold. ;)

hahahahaha!
Actually, it was kinda like that.

It started around 8:30 AM and at first it would go out for one or two seconds and then come back on, then after five to ten minutes it would go out again for one or two seconds. This happened about twelve or more times before it went out for good.
