When the power is out in your house how many times will you walk into a room, flip on the light switch and say oh yeah, the power is out?

Not just that. Now I walk out back and stare at my pool pump as if it should magically be running without power to the house. :grin:

As many as I walk into the room. You don't notice all these things you repeat doing until something like this. Funny thread DV, lets keep it rolling until we get busy.

Haha we start going outside looking to see if everyone else's lights are out or if we are just special [emoji849] then keep checking outside to see if theirs magically comes on [emoji23][emoji23]

lol autonomic response.
one time I moved a small garbage can and found myself throwing trash on the floor before
I realized the can was elsewhere.

Lots of times.. then I think..well I have nothing else to do..maybe I should put on a load of laundry and duhh.. no power. I can be so special sometimes..When the power is out in your house how many times will you walk into a room, flip on the light switch and say oh yeah, the power is out?

99.9% of the time when I look out my back window, the first thing I look for are ripples on the water from the return jets. Ripples - good. No ripples - bad. :grrrr: Even if the house power is out, it's instinct.
No ripples - bad. :grrrr: Even if the house power is out, it's instinct. When hurricane Sandy hit, we had no power for 15 days. EVERY day when walking into the bathroom, I hit the light switch. It came to a point that my wife wife asked me "what is wrong with you". What's worse, is when the power was restored, I kept looking for the lanterns and flashlights, lol.

May can't get here soon enough I think. Resist cabin fever syndrome.
...or maybe somebody is putting a little too much Hotty in their Toddy?

I can't figure out if we've got too many square pegs or too many round holes around here some days.

The steering wheel is on the right hand side of the car down here. It never happens at home, but in a car park now and then, I walk up to the left side and do a double-take when I don't see the steering wheel?! So I reckon if a power outage lasted for years you might still be trying to switch on the light, lol.
Good thing for anyone near me on the road that driving on the left becomes natural and obvious once you settle behind the wheel!

I cant answer that.... I forget how many times I walked into the room?
I live out of state from my mom's house where I grew up. A couple times a year the wife, kids & I go and stay with her for a week. Her kitchen is coincidently laid out exactly like the one in my house, except that her garbage can is under the sink and mine is at the end of the row of cabinets. It's not an issue at her house since there is a door at her house where my garbage can is, but when I get home, for at least 2 days, I'm opening up the door under the sink to throw something away, and then cursing my self!!
