No power! Oh no!

Oh no! The power was out when we woke up today.  It wasn't too bad though. It was nice to spend time talking instead of everyone being absorbed in their tech gadget. I got up and started a fire, we made coffee and cooked some breakfast and sat around visiting like a normal family.  Then I went and split wood, my boy carried it in, my daughter worked on dishes and my wife...well...we sent her off to the store!  It wasn't 30 minutes in and she started being a cunt and telling people she couldn't stand them and no one does what they are supposed too etc etc etc.  So I told her we needed stuff from town, really we just needed the peace and we needed her to go get high.  She came back with everything she was supposed too....reeeeeeking of weed but a much more tolerable person.  I think the weed is making her more angry/irritable though.  When she's not high she's very upset.  Then she goes and gets high and comes back and is OK for a little while.  Then back to the same old same old. Regardless of my wife, it was not a bad day.   I think that we will start doing a weekendly wifi-free time to work as a family and talk as a family.  This was the most I have seen my daughters eyes in a long time because her face is always buried in a phone.
