Furnace Out And No Water Yikes!

The furnace in the Lucas House died on me a couple of nights ago which then led to frozen pipes so now I have no water or heat. It's 35 degrees inside right now. Joe Eaton is coming over tomorrow to take a look to assess the problem.

I do have a couple of space heaters which help a bit. No water means no toilet. Oh well the Kum and Go gas station is only a quarter mile away.

Sent off my bio info the Unity Church in Quincy, IL requested. Went over to the library to do some research and helped Amy P. with figuring out her new DISH TV remote.

If it's Wednesday its meatloaf at the Blackwells. Church at First Baptist afterwards. I am once again in charge of the now monthly spaghetti dinner at Clear Creek Neighborhood Church tomorrow night.

Sunday will be attending Calvary Evergreen Church on Floyd Hill east of Idaho Springs. Then will walk over to the Tin Shed Food Pantry and pick out 2 weeks worth of foodstuffs.

We got about a foot of snow the last 2 days. And the temps have nose dived down into the teens with wind chills in the negative range. Yikes!

Even without heat and water my situation is fine. Told the Blackwells it beats being outside in a tent up on York Gulch!

Pic shows the snow we got the last 2 days.

Ciao!

  2. What awful luck - I hope your pipes and furnace can be fixed fast and for cheap! At least you have the gas station nearby! Hopefully all of these events you have going on keep you busy during this cold week. Dinners, church, shopping, and more should hopefully take up your time. I wish you a lot of luck!
