You may have seen on the news what happened in South Dakota on Saturday. They were going to implode the tallest building in the state—but there were some problems. Some friends of our live in the area, and have some FUNNY suggestions for fixing the problem…one is shown in the picture here. Click on the picture to see their other suggestions.
Early this morning, I stumbled into the bathroom for one of my many visits at this point in the pregnancy. I went to wash my hands and no cold water came out. I looked around, and realized the power was still on, tried the hot water and was able to wash my hands. In my sleepy state, I thought nothing of that. Later, when James and I were both awake, I told him there was no cold water. Sadly, he knew what that meant right away. For those of you who haven’t already guessed…our pipes had frozen. (It got into the single digits last night.)
We have a very nice guy working on them right now. And we are ‘roughing’ it without water for the morning. We’ve been taking some financial classes, and the first class we had talked about an “Emergency Fund”, and we had to define what would constitute an emergency. This morning we agreed this would fit the definition.
