The Braseltons

24 degrees!  That is what it said when we woke up this morning.  I was pulled out of bed by a chill in the air and the clicking of the heater that was starved of fuel.  I had to get clothes on and switch gas tanks.  Before heading outside, I tried to use the water.  No love there either.  There was no running water.  That means NO COFFEE!  Argh.  Oh well.  I changed the tanks and Tammy and the baby are warm again.  The ground is frozen and the dogs don’t understand how to pee on the frozen grass.  Things are already melting and the sun is warming the area well.  We have dripping water in the sink so it should start working again soon.  The gauge says 34 degrees already.  That is within an hour.
