How "sustainable" are you right now?

Frederick, MD(Zone 6a)

We are rural in that we are on a well, septic, etc.

We asked ourselves the other evening after the power went out due to thunder-bumpers, just how long we could go. Being on well and septic, y'all know that we had no water (no elec to pump) and that means no toilet facilities and no - well, you get the picture :)

DH was able to go out and start the generator to get us through the day, but it made us wonder....just how sustainable are we right now if there was let's say a 2 week (ackkkkk!!!!!) period when we had no power?

How would all of you make do? Just curious and love to hear your thoughts and ideas!
