Try being "Shut Down" for a week (Irene). The wife had me running my a$$ off flipping breakers......I need Hot Water...Coffee.....Toaster.....Hair Dryer & then my Son woke up....Dad I need....!
On the Positive side, it was only a week (2 weeks for Isabelle) and those poor people up North need a Boat to get to their mailbox.
