Schools on a 3 hour delay around here. 9 degrees out there. Wind is blowing ..but not as much as yesterday. A few more days and this will be out of here. Its like..Hold on a Little Longer and We'll be Home Free. It has not been a Bad winter here. We haven't had a snow yet...just flurries. I was looking at March's predictions and looks like lots of Warm weather... but, Only God is in control. We will Survive.

I hope your Electric doesn't go back off. One time a home is heated and that happens...takes time to heat back up. Also, have to worry about water pipes in this 0 weather.
Don't know why our Water froze last night....we took measure to keep that from happening. Guess we can't Fool Mother Nature.

Those heating tapes are great. Our pipes were all wrapped with insulation. The Plummer said the pipe froze from the meter to the house. Maybe wasn't buried deep enough. We have water now, thankfully. These Freezing temperatures we had last night broke the record for us.
Happy...The only ones smiling, will be the Electric Company when we have to pay the Bill.

Air Conditioning in Texas is a Must...so I have heard. Well..I can say..if you don't know English..I won't talk to you. Since I lived in Virginia for 20 years..everyone here in the south think I came from up North. My Northern Accent. My Daughter has that Southern accent.... she never picked up the Northern one. She knows Spanish very well.

I finally braved the weather and went to the Grocery Store. We didn't get more than an inch of Snow today and by afternoon a lot was gone. Weather report is saying around 3 to 5 inches tomorrow night. Mostly each year in this area we get 1 Snow...hope this is it. Looking forward to warmer weather soon.

I was reading on Yahoo a few days ago why Gas Prices went up when the cost of Oil was dropping. It stated that the suppliers of Gas could make up any Excuse to go up on the Gas. They don't have any Limits as to what they charge.

Dellia..this doesn't surprise me..but what is this stradegy teaching the children? The thing to do is just not buy as much gas as when the prices were lower IMO..There is plenty to do around our homes and more car pooling..
