"The facts: a motor / fan that is part of our furnace system failed. It happened sometime around 3:00 in the morning on a Sunday - Jan 30, 2011 to be exact. When we woke up Sunday morning, the temp in the house had dropped to 65 degrees. Despite many phone calls, no one came to fix the problem until Monday afternoon. Approx 36 hours with no heat and no hot water.
Nothing to be done, so we did our best to make the best of it. We camped out in the living room Sunday night. The kids on the fold-out and Lucas and I on the floor. We layered clothes and blankets. We went through EVERY fire log in the house. We did our best to stay warm. It was 55 degrees when we woke up Monday morning. The kids went to school where there was heat, and we waited at the house for repairs to be made. '

Oh no, that's awful. Our furnace went on the blink on New Years Eve, but we lucked out and got someone out within 2 hours (but it was getting cold fast with -20C outside) - it failed around 6pm and then at 2am, so the guy had to come back in the wee hours of NYDay! Looks like you had a fun snuggle time despite the bad situation, and you got a gorgeous page to remember it by!
