Oh boy, ...get out the space heaters if youhave them and aim at any pipes that are on outsidewalls. We used to live in an 1850 n that hada kitchen pipe that would freeze up nearly every winter. We kept a small space heater under the sink.The best to you on this. Keep us posted.

This old house has

piping as an afterthought – and somebody thought hard, because all our

plumbing is concentrated in a less than 10=ft square area, all inside walls.

The most worrisome is the outside pipes, which are what froze last weekend. Himself

wrapped them up and we’re leaving the water running a little, so

hopefully we won’t freeze again…

Mercy, it’s

BRISK here today! <G>

All our critters live in the house anyway - which kinda startled the vet

in connection with the 90-pound shepherd-malamute. They go out

juuuuussssssst long enough to " go " in this weather.

And I made a coat for the little one. ;-)

Bear’s a

big old knucklehead. He just can’t understand why Daddy and his two

“sisters” don’t want to stay outside and play in the

nice freezing weather. <G>

On the

other hand, he is very fond of his spot on the couch or up on our bed…

True. Bear sounds familiar. I have four wolf-dogs, which Ihad when I actually lived in a house. Now they live with myfriend, Edna, who also has MS, and with her eldest son.They are absolute babies. When I have "sat" them whenEdna and her son went to visit relatives, all four of the dogsdid want to be on the king-sized bed with me! They havepack mentality: the humans are the alpha and beta packleaders and they have fits if one leaves, but that does notstop any of them from occupying the bed, sofa, whateverrecently warmed by the humans!On the other hand, should they ever escape, the will tear around the block about five times and then collapse onthe sofa, bed, chair, whatever. And if one of us takesone of them to the

veterinarian (that is, out of the houseand away from the yard) they have a fit!When we come back with the recently veterinarianizedwolf-dog, all the rest of the pack are howling by the front door and acting desperate. They are very loving, somewhat like three-year-oldtoddlers.Love to you, , and to all in our group, and to all of our dogs, cats, pets. . . .n To: MSersLife Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 3:10:17 PMSubject: RE: RE: storm moving in...

So do all my sisters who are in the house as we speak - they are all babies and just a smidge spoiled - not to us though - Lugh the lad/retriever loves this weather - the rest are house lovers
