Tuesday morning here. Quite a mourning morning indeed. We have a long power interruption scheduled. It will start at 7:00 in the morning and will end 6:00 in the afternoon. Definitely, my online activities will be hindered. I am thinking of what to do during this interruption. What do you often do when there's a long power interruption scheduled in your area?

When there's power interruption, I do offline activities at home; gardening, cleaning, walking or visiting relatives.

We don't get that long power interruptions. It is generally of 2_3 hours. I prefer to do those chores that don't need power. I am happy doing some reading or artwork.

You are lucky there to not have much power interruption. Reading is not a bad choice.

It is just okay to have something like this as long as they have an advanced schedule announcement.

Aww, that's a long power interruption. When there's a power interruption, I just watch some movies downloaded on my mobile phone. Sometimes, I go out and have some decaf tea in a coffee shop to pass time.

Watching movies on phone is quite a nice idea but sadly my battery is so easy to drain nowadays.

We just stay in the dark and deal with it till it's past. Luckily it does not happen often here.

We experience that often here in Nigeria. I switch on the generator and life goes on.

Glad you have a life saver there. We can't afford to buy one.
