Here's an update on the craziness we call our lives.
Our house is special. They found mold in the wall so they had to punch several holes in it, some how clean it, and then fill it with some stuff that should prevent the mold from coming back. Since the house smelled very strong of cleaner, paint, etc. we had to air it out (in 17 degree weather while it snowed) and we stayed one more night with our friends. We are VERY grateful to our friends for letting us stay with them while our house was being fixed. We were pretty happy to be able to come home but this is us so of course more craziness had to happen!
We came home in time for some of the coldest weather in 15 years. Our house is old and drafty so even with the furnace cranked and two space heaters on our house maxes out at 59 degrees. Last night it was around -20 and tonight it should be -30 so we get to wear a lot of clothes and sleep with every blanket we own.
The cold weather has also taken a toll on our car. The battery is dead and we had to buy a new one because jumping it didn't work.
Needless to say we can't wait for the craziness to be over!

Craig told me just today that he'll be getting a new battery for his mustang. Darn cold weather!
I also have some blankets you can borrow if you're not warm enough with yours.
Oh that is so crazy how cold it is there. I hope you guys stay warm enough, especially Rosalee. It's strange how most of the US is having record lows, and then there is CA where we are having record highs. We have been in the high 60s this week.
Sad day in the James household! Good luck with everything. I hate freezing houses! That's terrible. Sorry! I'm glad they solved the mold issues in the wall though.
If you want to borrow another space heater let me know.
wow that is freezing cold. I wouldnt do well. Let the count down begin. You guys are so close
