Frozen

Thanks to our friendly neighbor plumber, the hot-water pipe under the kitchen sink that froze overnight is FINALLY defrosted.  (Yes, just the hot water pipe, probably because it has more oxygen bubbles, he said.  And just under the kitchen sink because the pipe is most exposed in the basement.) It took a few space heaters in optimal locations to work their magic.  And we'll have to drip the faucet overnight to keep it from happening again.  But thankfully, no pipes were damaged.  Mama is getting insulation tonight at the hardware store to try to seal things up.

Maybe it will keep out our winter mouse, too.
