Checking in

So the short version: we're massively inconvenienced and got a bit scared at one point, but we're ok and should continue to be so.

( So, that happened )

So. We're lucky. It could have been so much worse. We're a little uncomfortable and very inconvenienced, but we're safe, and only lost a handful of things from the fridge. Our stuff's fine. Most of our friends and family have checked in and are at our level or better. It might be weeks before things approach normal, but everything's ok. And we're grateful.
