Power Outages

I work from home full time and these power outages make it hard to work when it is out for hours and I need to pack up and find somewhere to work. Last year when the power was out for 4 days we lost freezers of food and had to sleep in the living room with the gas fireplace which is not cheap. We pay so much for our energy bills and then have the inconvenience of the power going out way too often.
