Sleeping in front of the Christmas tree cause there's still no power and we can't heat the downstairs…goodluck Santa ??

Across Canada and the U.S., upwards of half a million people are waking up to another day without power and heat in the aftermath of the Ice Storm of 2013. Intrepid and resourceful families are taking it all in stride and counting their blessings.
No power? No problem! My family pulled a #totalNDmove and brought Grotto candles to Christmas Eve Mass. pic.twitter.com/fxGKBfKcLe

Our night of no power made me appreciate how lucky we are to be cosy & warm at Christmas. Thinking of those who aren't so lucky. #merryxmas
