Yeah the weather is just GREAT

[zestfive]

Especially since all the natural gas has to be turned off in my entire town. For some reason the gas pressure has dropped so the local gas company has to go around to every residence and business that has a natural gas connection and turn it off at the main. After the gas lines have been pumped back up to where they should be, they have to go around to every house and re-light the pilot lights. This includes my furnace, hot-water heater, stove and dryer. This could take up to 2 days. And right now outside it's 37 degrees and inside it's 55 degrees. Luckily, I thought to quick wash my hair while the water was still warm.

Fun times!! Thankfully the gas people hadn't come to my house while it sat empty. I understand that if you're not home, they've been authorized to break into your house to do it. Not an expense I would want to deal with.

With the wind blowing so hard, it already blew off the back screen door. I don't even want to know how much that will cost to repair. :-(

But I'll be warm enough and my hair is clean and it could be worse. I could be one of those gas line folks going to over 5500 different people's houses tonight!
