So yesterday, you know the pipes were frozen all day, until Bud got home last night at about 9:00. He wasn't the happiest camper as you can imagine since they were froze all day and he couldn't understand why they were still froze. So anyway, he goes down to the basement to check to see what is going on and why they were not thawing and comes back up stairs and goes, "Hun, I'm such a moron!" I replied, "Ya?!" He says, "Well you know the light has to be on down in the laundry room in order for the electrical tape to be turned on as well!" HA HA HA So all day the thing wasn't even turned on. He said he would have been so mad at himself if the pipes would have broke and it was because he hadn't left the light on.
Ok, so now..... Bud ALWAYS, ALWAYS, leaves lights on through out the house and I am constantly telling him to turn the lights off behind him. So, the one time he listened....
(ok, maybe not the first time, but second) Crazy.
Hopefully we will not have any more frozen pipes. I am desperately in need of a shower I must add. We finally had hot water last night at like 10:30, and I didn't feel like showering then.
Oh yesterday when I went down to do laundry, I turned on the light and the fan came on so I wondered hmmmmm, should this light be on in order to have this pipe un freeze?????? I thought, "No, if it were suppose to be on Bud would have for sure left it on!"
Moral of the story. Just when you think you have your husband trained........ No just kidding.
