Yesterday afternoon we lost power before my evening classes. I reported it on our neighborhood group page as well as City Light. I hadn’t eaten my dinner yet, so I had to resort to a snack of crackers and dips from the fridge.
My greatest concerns were for my evening classes which I could hold without lights or fans, but not live stream as my device had little battery power left. The power turned back on after about 45 minutes. Relieved, I posted the good news, whomped up pizza dinner for Bob and plugged in my live streaming device to charge it up, just in case. The students arrived and we gratefully continued as scheduled, thankful that the “scheduled system test” didn’t interfere with our practice.
Can you give thanks for your basic things: power, water, shelter, and clothing? What are your back up plans when infrastructure fails? Ki to Happiness is grateful for the basic infrastructure on which we rely and plans for backing it up with candles and charged batteries.
