So I just crawled out of bed this morning, (Have been awake for about an hour.) and I went to start some laundry and I have no power. So I checked our local news page, from my phone of course, and it says that there is a planned power outage from 9am to 1pm. They let us know at 8:30 am according to the news!!
How am I supposed to get all my shit done before work tonight? And how am I supposed to eat breakfast/lunch?
Thanx ladies for making me not feel so crazy about the short notice. When I told DH he seemed to think that the notice was enough and he thinks I'm silly for being upset about it.

Um no. Some folks need advanced notice, especially if they have life saving equipment or refrigerated medications like insulin. What if you were diabetic with insulin in the fridge, and you left for work at 0730? Theoretically, the fridge would stay cold, but you don't want to take that chance that the power outage would last longer.
pooh8402 this was what I was thinking about too. I also couldn't eat anything unless it didn't need to be heated/cooked. So u had a bowl of chips for breakfast :/

I definitely think they need to give you much more notice then what they did! How rude of them. I'm glad they turned it back on early for you to get everything you needed done!
