It's kind of like being without electricity.......when your water pipes freeze. You can't wash dishes....flush the toilet....make coffee.....wash your hands...... It's better because you can see.......
Yes! our water pipes froze yesterday evening. I went to make some coffee and all I got was a tiny stream of water. "What's up with this". Ah! the pipes are froze...... Oh great." That was kind of how our conversation went. It was late at night - dark out - COLD (10 below) and windy (wind chill was probably -25 or something). So we just sat and watched a movie on tv and then went to bed. By morning I had 10 cups of drop by drop water in the coffee pot. Gary had thought enough to catch those drops.
Now ------ this is WORSE than being without electricity because you can't just call Cherry Todd and say Hey!!!!--- We have to do this one ourselves. So Gary is out getting the heater under the trailer and we will soon bug Rob for some hot water and it will probably, hopefully begin to flow again. Guess we will leave it run in the sinks for a while so we don't have a repeat.
On the bright side -- it is a cloudless sky so the sun will soon be shining. But it is also only -7.9 degrees. The wind seems to have died down.
Life on the prairies is still good --- gotta be able to take the good with the bad.
:) Keep smiling. Gary and Barb
