Pretty grim eh? Now I know that everyone else in the country is worse off than this. I mean we only got an inch max. But do you see that walkway covered in ice? That's why they give people snow days and shut down airports! And really, why did the snow storm have to happen the one winter I'm here?? I thought the main reason we liked Texas was because it was warm!
It is no fun to go from 70 degrees to 20 degrees over night, no matter where you live. The worst part about the weather here though is that someone didn't insulate our pipes. We've been without running water since Monday night and suspect that all of our pipes are frozen. No one we've called seems to have a solution for us, and we've tried a few things, but nothing has worked. We will probably have to wait until they thaw naturally and hope they don't burst or flood us. It won't get above freezing until Friday ... and if we don't have water by Friday it is supposed to get up to 60 on Saturday.
Until then, I'll just have to keep showering at the gym, going to the bathroom at the church building or the mall, brushing my teeth with a little water bottle water, and letting the dirty dishes stink up the kitchen.

Wow! We are maybe getting snow tonight in San Antonio. My kids are thrilled at the thought, but if the pipes freeze, not cool. Proud of you for hanging in there! If the pipes do burst, will the landlord take care of it?
Call your landlord, pronto, if you haven't already.
we've been talking with our landlord and following her directions. hopefully the pipes are ok!
Oh my goodness, that ice looks treacherous! Yikes! We'll keep our fingers that your pipes don't burst, that would be even worse than the ice.
...our fingers *crossed :)
