1. I'm glad
Do you only have electric heat, or a furnace that has an electric starter? If so, I feel for you. We have wood heat and have our backup batteries ready in case we lose power, which happens every winter. Right now, we're using water out of jugs because the water line to our well is frozen. Glad we were prepared. Hope you are as well. Stay warm.

2. I got my powers back too.
I think I'll go out, rip a locomotive off the tracks, lift it over my head, and toss it on a Republican's lawn.

4. I know
I had just strained some boiled coffee grounds and was thinking about putting all my frozen food outside to keep it frozen, when bam, the power came on. I was relieved.
