Cold

So, like I mentioned yesterday, Sunday we got up early (well, early for a city) and went to the opera with the hubsters parents. Afterwards we went to dinner (yummy greek food) and then walked around a bit before heading home.

The train had some issues and we finally got home at around 10.

We turned on the TV to relax a little bit for the evening, and realized it was pretty cold so got in bed.

Yesterday morning, the hubsters alarm went off. I heard it but went right back to sleep not waking up until he was getting back in bed.

Me: What are you doing?
Him: We have no hot water. Or heat.

Great!

Before he got back into bed (the only warm spot in the house) he called the oil heat guys. They called back shortly and were there within the hour.

Where they loaded 497 gallons of oil into our 500 gallon tank.

Uh, yeah, no wonder it was freaking cold!!!

Apparently they decided that since our tank was so big (apparently most in our neighborhood only have 250 gallon tanks) they didn’t need to come that often. Or apparently, never.

But I’m warm again now and ready for another day or writing. Or procrastinating. Probably procastinating.

You?

    The co-op doesn’t keep track of our propane for us — we have to call when we’re running low. I’ll be in trouble if anything ever happens to Mr. Robin. It wouldn’t occur to me to check until the house and water were freezing, either. :D
