The plumber's came and did their thing Friday afternoon, but I was so busy, I didn't really have time to test it out. To commemorate the girl's first weekend (ok, overnight) with their dad, my mom and I went out to dinner. First, we poked around the aisles of Whole Foods just looking at random stuff and chatting. Then we ate a leisurely meal at Applebee's. Three whole hours of adult conversation without interruption from a child. It was like a little slice of Heaven.
Anyway, when I got up Sunday morning, I decided it was time to hunker down and address the steadily growing mountain of dishes. I turned the tap to hot and let it run. For quite a while. It only made it to luke warm, at best. I went out to the garage to check the pilot on the water heater to make sure it was still lit. It was and it was set fairly high. I smelled a little gas, but didn't get too awfully concerned. A little while later, however, I went back to check on it again and I could smell gas by the time I was 5 feet away from the water heater. So I called PG&E and they said they'd be out by 5 p.m. I decided to open the garage door to let some of the fumes out and this time I could smell gas as soon as I walked in. Scary.
Turns out there was a gas leak and handy PG&E-guy fixed it for me. Thank goodness. Tragedy averted. See? I AM lucky :)
The girls had a good time at their dad's and he even picked them back up on Sunday to take them to a birthday party. Overall, it was a good weekend.
And after some pretty heavy convincing, I got my mom to agree to put me and Pokeboy on a cell phone plan with her and I'm getting this in Strawberry. It should be delivered on Valentine's Day. Yay! |
