27. Yes

No indoor plumbing for a number of long years. No running water hot or cold. No electricity and no gas. Very little food or clothing.

Wood stove, often a dry well with hand pump, kerosene lamps (One Coleman white gas lantern). 1942 to 1946. Then things started getting a little bit better-we got ELECTRIC!

Oh sorry, you said no maudlin entries.
