I think I will just unplug some things and check out the peace and quiet. I enjoyed your take on this - when it happened to us, it ended up being almost a week before things came back on so I heated and lived in front of the fireplace (it was Feb), cooked and heated water on the propane grill, ended up using all my wonderful Yankee Candles (with the upside being I HAD to replace them, right?) and, as you said, had much peace. Your post just reminded me of that time - so yes, it's time to unplug! Saw this on the Index and read it – great post! I think I will just unplug some things and check out the peace and quiet.

Like you, I have found that days without the computer can be very productive! But it's too bad that you lost so many other useful things. I admire your positive outlook.
