Horrified Without a Portable Generator

The news report from the day before already had me worried. Heavy storms had been predicted and last year we lost electricity for a full two days. After that incident I purchased two shiny portable generators to make sure that if it ever occurred a second time we would be prepared. Problem was, I couldn’t remember where I had stored them and the storm was already here.

I have got to locate the portable generator. Everyone head to the bottom floor, I’ll be right there, as soon as I locate it and get it going. Ok baby, please hurry. (kisses for everyone) Jogging towards the shed I could smell the storm coming this way. Off in the distance, black and purple, weird reds and greens spinning together. It was just after four in the afternoon and it was literally pitch black out here.

I fumbled through the junk that was spread out everywhere, mumbling under my breath about how I should keep a cleaner garage. All I could think was, please protect my kids. Ah there it is,the portable generator. Now where is the gas can, I know it’s half full, I just filled it last week, and I haven’t used it since then. Oh wait the machine should be full. Yes it is.

Great! okay, now tug the cord, and plug this power bar into it and we should be done. This electric start portable generator is great, I am so ecstatic I finally got this thing. (It roars to life) Ok, plug this in. Whala! Ok, where is the main house plug? There it is. Plug it in. Yes! Alright then, back to the family!
