When the Lights Go Out
I’m not sure if the storm will stop soon (1). Do you know what to do if the lights go out (2)? You can use candles if there is no electricity (3). Do you remember if I put the candles in the closet (4)? If the candles aren’t there (5), they might be in the drawer. Do you mind telling me if they’re in the drawer (6)? Another thing to remember if the lights go out (7) is to find a flashlight. I don’t know if the batteries in the flashlight are still working (8). Can you remember if we bought batteries (9)? I think I would remember if we bought batteries (10).
