A day like today was the perfect day to make Charlotte very, very glad that when she redid this place, she included a fireplace in the floorplan. And that it was gas, not electrical (you certainly didn't expect it would be a real one, did you?), so that the cold from the power going out wasn't nearly as bad

And after a long day at work, Dale returned back home, carefully knocking the snow off his botts before entering.

"Charlotte? I'm home!"

"Did you hear that, Elizabeth Taylor?" Charlotte mewled to the dog with a playfully surprised expression. "Daddy's home! Go on!" She set her down, so that she could go bouncing toward the door. "Go say hi!"

Elizabeth Taylor scurried forward, and Charlotte wasn't far behind. "We've been watching the snow," she informed Dale, importantly, before going to give him a kiss in greeting. "No where near as anything important as you've been doing today, I'm sure."

"Oh just making sure everyone is warm and safe," Dale said cheerfully returning the kiss. "This was my last stop. Looks like my girls are doing quite well though."

"Elizabeth Taylor loves the snow. Don't you, sweetie?"

Charlotte turned a grin at Dale. "We've been doing just fine. Blackouts aren't so bad when you've got the foresight to design in a gas fireplace."
