When the power goes out! What do you do?

Question

We've not had power for 5 days now, due to trees falling on electrical wires during an early snowstorm. What fun!
What do you do when the power goes out? How do you keep busy?

So many things we take for granted, are electric..so it seems that there isn't much to do...
i know, I know...we can play board games by candlelite!
But ...When your power goes out, what do you miss the most?

Answer 1

I usually read. During the ice storm a couple of years ago I read 2 very large books.

What I miss the most is video games.
