Woke up to blue sky and sunshine today...supposed to get up to 37 degrees! :)

I'm not sure what the temp is here, after hitting -11 last night. I'm getting constantly changing temps now from -2 to 12f back to -2 from my usual sources :confused: Maybe the cold finally did them in.

What I do know is I went to get a roll of TP this morning and found a water filled roll. Yup, a leak under the sink. The toilet also has been making a very strange growling sound under the house after every flush, I don't know what the heck that is. I'm going to guess that it's trying to force its way past some frozen sewage or something. Can't wait for warmer temps. This cold home stand has just been so much fun :rolleyes:

I don't know what that gurgle is but we get it too when it's super cold. And we put in all new sewer and water lines a few years ago and they bury them deep out here. But you do know if you need a plumber it's going to be in the winter...*lol*

I get that sometimes in the winter when I eat a lot of Mexican food.

Dreamer, I had a good set up in one house I lived in. The washing machine was also in the basement, so it was plumbed to dump into the basement sump. That would exercise the pump. The one time it failed it was an easy fix, because it wasn't at a time when I really needed it like during a flood.

Must have been something to my thought that something was frozen. Been flushing with hot water, the noise has stopped. That or it's now just dumping directly under the house :rolleyes:

Good Morning and Happy Surprise Friday. What an odd start to the day. For some reason when I woke up I was convinced that it was Saturday. Started planning out my day, my mental count down clock to going back in service running. Puzzled why what should have been a 2 day beard growth looked like I shaved yesterday. Got upset that I missed yet another day of medication. Only to figure out it's a happy Friday. Nice to get an extra day :rolleyes:
