WE COULD OF USED THESE...


...last Saturday!


We through up the signs and opened the shop
so that customers could have one more chance
at some Holiday bargains before 
The Whistle Stop's long winter nap! 

We turn off the water when we're not there
and when we turned it on...
You guessed it...
It was raining out the light fixture 
and the door jam in our little kitchen.
Frozen pipes... Ughhh!

So good thing the hubby is handy! 
He's been playing "plumber" & "drywaller"
all week and next he'll be playing "painter"! 

You've got to love below zero winter temperatures...
... NOT!

  4. So sorry, feel your pain... Texas got so cold that happen to us, too! At least it only leaked outside, but lots of different places. I am slow as Christmas, but I do have snowflake in an envelope, so someday it will make it to post office. :) Lezlee

  5. Oooo, so sorry to hear about your plumbing problems. This has been a VERY cold winter.
    Hope it's all better by now.
