Corned beef and cabbage, hold the cabbage. Is that allowed?

lawnmower gas goes into the car for the winter...new (ethanol free, in your face, Iowa) generator gas shall now be procured, the cycle of (home) life.
I'm not sure I'd use the word "enjoy." I can be impressively lazy, but having lived in the same house for 30+ years, I know what needs to be done, and I do them, especially those things that need to be accomplished before snow sets in.
I am one part work, two parts congratulating myself on what I've done.
Tricking and treating, or nah?
We’re socially distancing handing out candy (via bowl).
We’re delivering candy via a tube. Sorta like mainlining.

Despite an explanation the before, the baby ignored daylight savings time.
5600 watts. Our area is prone to big wind and snow storms, we've lost power for five full days on several occasions...did not have the money 15 years ago to get the automatic, whole house generator (would've been $9k or so including buying a propane tank) so we had the house properly wired by an electrician and bought a Sears generator, all for just over $2k...doesn't do the whole house, but it does get the furnace working, fridge, lots of lights, more than enough to get by for days...easily rolls out of our walkout basement...
yesterday was the third anniversary (Halloween, 2017) of The Big Wind Storm when we lost about 150 trees, several on the house, 35 or so across the driveway (all 70 foot white pines), president of the power company had a photo op at the end of our driveway...not a fun day...
As such I always make sure I have a five gallon can of non ethanol gasoline, just in case...

dog does not recognize Standard Time vis a vis dinner time.
YouTube didn't listen, either. Online service premiered an hour earlier than we wanted.
It sounds like we are all being ignored.
Some of the quotes I've seen for whole house generators have been sizable. As far as Texas utilities go, our uptime has been pretty good and big storms while always possible haven't had much of an impact power wise. Part of that is being in a relatively new part of town where much of the grid is underground.
