Walking on sunshine. Always tacky.

Tuesday, January 27, 2004

Yesterday morning, all was going so well. We got up at 4:30. Monday morning.

Wanted to jump in the shower, so I turned on the water, then decided to brush my teeth.

The gushing shower water suddenly slowed to a trickle. Then NOTHING.

FROZEN PIPES! UGH!!!

No biggie, really. We keep extra water supplies. Kitty dishes were well-filled. The shower wasn't a necessity (back me up on this one, Gusto!) Plus, Munchkin had school and I headed to Gusto's for the day.

Honestly, when I Nextel'd my husband with the news, he griped longer than it took for him to fix it when he came home! He is SUCH a handyman! In fact, he even knew what the problem was (open vents) before he saw it. (We had discussed it last year, and he meant to do it, but never did. OOPS!)

He didn't mind the job, what he especially hates is that our crawl opening is at one end of the house and the well pipes are at the other. It's a LONG crawl/waddle in the cold for such a big guy!

Don't worry, he was rewarded nicely with a HUGE pot of Dinty Moore stew and some grilled ham-n-cheese sandwiches for dinner.

And "CLOSE THE VENTS" is now duly scheduled on our calendar for Sept 1.
