Ever take water coming out of the tap for granted? Last week we sure did NOT.
Minus 15 degrees the thermometer read December 9th morning. Yeppers, that's 15 degrees BELOW ZERO - Maybe you've wondered why Wyoming has only 500,000 people living here. It's because all the weak ones have winter killed.
Ah the pleasures of minus zero weather, Day One my car battery died ($134.00 for a new heavy duty one; I can now start a bulldozer with my car!!), and the shower froze up in the master bath, okay not a problem, use the bath #2 tub.
Day Two, the sink in the 2nd bath is leaking -- oh goody, need to replace that ($34.95) when we have time. Shut off sink.
Day three, sink in master bath Freezes UP. Oh this is getting serious - use Kitchen sink.....
By Day four we are down to kitchen sink and back bathtub but we survived!!! Ah the joys of living in a lousy mobile home outside of civilization!!! Temps above zero this week and even the forties by the end of the week! Life goes on.

We used to put a lightbulb next to where the water comes in. Therefore, no more frozen water.
