An Icy Nightmare

Just like anywhere else in the country right now, we are having a freak cold front that has kept the temp. down in the 20's-30's. Yesterday we breached freezing for 2 hours (yay!).

There is no running water in the house and hasn't been since yesterday morning. The only exception being that you CAN in fact flush the toilet and water dribbles out of the bathroom faucet.

Dishes are beginning to pile up, never mind the never ending laundry that is now at a complete standstill. I joked to Chase about using the bottled water, and gallons from our Hurricane Evac kit. Truth is, there's not enough to wash and rinse the dishes. I have no clue what I'm supposed to do with all of our work clothes that need to be washed!

To top things off our heater is on the fritz. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Friday morning the thermostat couldn't even register the temp in the house it was so cold. The thermostat registers from 55-95, so you can imagine it was pretty damn cold in this house!

I'm really hoping I can figure something out, because this weather is getting ridiculous.

  1. We have been doing that every night but for some reason, last night it didn't work.
