Water is Life

Gave the front page a little bit of an overhaul today. Added a picture, changed how some of the things are displayed, etc. What do you think?

Monica is putting information together for the wedding page, and it should be updated in the next couple of days. Stay tuned!

Woke up this morning to no water. Turn on the faucet and…nothing. Life’s a bit different when you don’t start the day with a hot shower. Life is very different when you can’t even flush the toilet. We’ve had a few days of arctic, spit-and-it-freezes-in-mid-air cold weather and last night was the worst we’ve had so far. As a result, our water meter froze up and stopped our water supply. I’ve been told about letting a faucet run when the temperature is cold (even last week by my dad), but it didn’t even occur to me until after I tried to wash my face with some soap mixed with air. The water company didn’t even come out to fix it today (I first called them around 6:15 am), but they finally fixed it this evening after I called them back and listened to the guy tell me they had received a ton of customer service calls and fixed every one of them.

So now, every faucet is on full blast, and I can sleep soundly knowing that the draining noise I hear is the sound of water not freezing…and money being sucked out of my bank account to pay the water bill.
