More broken pipes

-4 degrees when I went to bed last night. The water pressure was really low, so I turned all the faucets on full, but within an hour they were completely stopped. That means the water is frozen under the house and maybe under the ground. Welcome to global 'warming'!!?

The sun is shinning and the wind is blowing, I can feel it when it is gushing. I am in the house by the way. This was and still is a fixer upper house. We have a lot of fixing up to still do. Sometimes I want to write in to HGTV to see if any of the shows would come and fix a room or roof or add a room on.... anything. The good thing about these cold winds is that we can find the next place that needs sealing up and we can tell if we did a good job or not, of the previous sealing up job.

Jim left really early for work, seeings how he can use the water there to get cleaned up etc. I will probably go down there in a while, I did fill some bottles with the water last night before the pipes froze all the way, so I can wash up. The coffee was already ready to brew, so as soon as it is done, I will have a cup of coffee, get dressed and head down to Jim's work. He will come home early to check under the house and check on Nick's pipes. Then we will know,hopefully, what is going on with the water.

Well, on a higher note.... the sun is shining, it looks absolutely beautiful out there, lots of bright light coming in through the windows, just gorgeous! I have a warm house and lots of food, the propane tank is full and the electricity is still on. All good things!
