We have had several snowstorms (Marcus, Neptune, Octavia, Pandora) over the last few weeks, adding to the total ground cover of snow, which currently stands at 6½ FEET.
And to top things off, yesterday I woke up to a broken water main, my street shut down, and later, the gas main ruptured. So I spent until 6 pm with no water, and until 8 pm with no gas for cooking/heat/hot water. And the gas heat only stayed on for 2 hours until it conked out again.
I need a house with a well and wood heat... Come on, lottery! :Þ
