How timely is this topic?! We're just waiting for the power to go off here today. The only thing I reset is the stove, which is electric. It makes a funny sound like a duck quack when the power is restored, then it will flash unceasingly until it is reset.
I commiserate with all of my snowed-in friends this morning! Feeding the birds took longer than usual, but they're happy now. There's probably a good five to six inches down, with more on the way. Yippee! The winds seem to have subsided for now. The ice that mixed in has made the snow a sandy-type consistency. Glad we got a fuel refill yesterday. Well, I guess I'm rambling. Should've put this on the 'Say Anything' thread.
Happy Wednesday, all!!

Resetting stuff after an outage.

Everything seems to have a clock nowadays, although I don't get too many power outages, having to reset those clocks can be a little bit of a pain in the behind...

Hmm, there's another thing.

I know why the TV signal is so bad.

The wind has blown the aerial over.

It's really horrible here at the moment.

Yes, and there are sometimes that I really don't want to know what time it is. Just don't care.

That can definitely be a pain especially after a prolonged outage where you just want it to come back on so you CAN reset everything......but it's still a pain.
