Good morning, everyone and a very Happy New Year to all!!!
Today is not only a new week but a new year to boot. I'm starting the new year off with only cold water in my kitchen. Yeah, the rest of the water in the house is frozen. Ahhh, does the fun never cease????
So I guess our plans for today have fallen through, but that too is okay. I would much rather have water by the end of the day than have to deal with no water when hubby is gone for a few days. Just sayin'...
The other plus to this is, I'm glad it happened while he was home and not when I have to deal with it by myself and call the oldest son in a panic while he's at work, crying while soaked under the house in subzero temps, saying, "I don't know what else to do." Only to have him come over and help me get it fixed.
Yes, true story, this happened a few years ago. I was in the crawlspace under the bathroom, thawing out frozen pipes with the blow dryer, when one of the pipes to my water heater broke and soaked me with water. I had dealt with frozen pipes under there for a few days, locating them, thawing them out, and having the same issue the next day, when this happened. So, I was at my ropes end when I made that call, but my oldest son being the gem he is, saved me.
So, to have hubby home to fix this, is a godsend for me for sure. However, this lady isn't leaving the house without a shower. Thankfully it's my day off :)
I'm really hoping this is not an omen for the up and coming year. At work just about everything broke this week. Now this... Yeah, this year is coming in with a bang for sure.
I want to chime in here and say all of you have made my 2017 a fantastic year for my website/blog!!! I hit my highest ever page views for the year!!! This made me so thrilled and definitely made all the bad stuff happening in my life look and feel so much better!!! So thank all you for helping me find a bright spot in my otherwise insane world right now!!!
With this being a new week and a new year I'm going to make the best of what is yet to come. I have some firm ideas on how I want this year to go and frankly, I need to make this happen. I'm the only one who can do it and just talking about it won't cut it.
So the game plan is in effect and today I begin executing it :) New day, new week, new year :)
Well I guess I should get this day started.
Everyone have a lovely day!!!
Blessings to all!!!
