I believe Alcohol soaked TP roll in a coffee can make a poor mans heater.

Yep. I’ve got the mountain sleeping bags. Lanterns, etc.
I will either have a generac or kohler backup generator installed. Not doing this crap again.

We've been without power for a couple of days, which of course took out the water well. I have a generator that I've used to power my cell booster so I can get signal in the house, and to keep my laptop charged.
Our most critical omission was not having enough vodka and whiskey on hand to make it more than a couple of days. We made an emergency supply run during today's thaw to remedy that situation.
If anything, I probably need to keep a little more potable water on hand. I have half a dozen 20# propane bottles, but I allowed all but about one and half to run empty. We'll fill those next week. I have an adapter to keep the smaller propane bottles for the buddy heaters filled, if needed. We have various propane, butane, kerosene, Jetboil, etc. cookers on hand if needed. Oh, and plenty of wood for smoker/grill.
Being a winter storm, keeping the freezers running isn't an issue. We've been able to cycle our four fridges and freezers on my little Yamaha inverter/generator during summer outages.
As Kirby and Tracey each alluded earlier, if I'm ever in danger of loosing freezers I have a couple of pressure canners and plenty of jars and lids to salvage as much food as possible. Of course, I have plenty of small critters and a couple dozen deer hanging out on my property on a given day if I need to replenish in an emergency situation!

Did you at lease replenish at Patek’s and say hello to aunt Earlene??

For those concerned about coffee here’s a little backpacking trick I use. Take your coffee filters, coffee grounds, string, and a stapler. Pour a small amount of coffee grounds in a filter, fold the filter up to seal it with the string out the top, then staple it to hold it together. Then use the filter as a tea bag. Heat your water however possible, and just drop the coffee filter bag into the heated water. I do this over campfires or small Jet Boil camp stoves. For stronger coffee add more grounds or use a second tea bag.
