          Well I am not saying it was cold last night but..... got up this morning  at about 4:30 as usual and no water? Hmmm water pump is turned on can't hear it running and no water pressure. It was -10c (14F ) and the compartments are heated somewhat from our furnace, but.. I turn the thermostat down to 50 f at night (to conserve our propane and a get a good night's sleep), so I guess not enough heat got down there. 

a wonderful sunrise this morning, love it !

          So when the sun came up (to a beautiful sunrise and no snow) I took my trouble light with a 60 watt bulb and plugged it in, dropped it and broke the bulb. Oopps again, but I did have a spare, put in by the water pump and was thawed out in about 2 hours, but still no water. Ok, got out our small ceramic heater and put it down there, on low. We have a 200 foot 15 amp extension cord for power, it will not run on high. 30 minutes later we have water and no leaks. Whooppee ! 
         Then picked up a few food stuffs for tonight's supper and 2 more light bulbs. I need the old style incandescent, that are very hard to find now , everything is energy efficient. Yes they use more power because they give off heat and that's what I want. Found them lucky me.
        After a light lunch Suzie went to visit her Dad in the Stratford Hospital and hopefully they will let him loose tomorrow. When he gets outta there and is settled, we will go somewhere, not sure where, that remains to be seen, not too far though. While she did that I whipped up the the Wilmot Rec Centre and got a 3 mile boring walk done on the inside track. 36 laps, better than not walking and much warmer.
        For supper tonight a home made pizza with our favourite Cauliflower crust click HERE or my recipe blog top right sidebar of this blog. Used this huge 2 dollar cauliflower I picked up yesterday at the St. Jacob Farmer's market. This was topped with Turkey Pepperoni, Ham, onions, fresh mushrooms, green olives and jalapeno peppers on my half, then topped with tomato slices after it came out of the oven to cool down a bit.

       Then while the pizza was cooking we had weather! Hmm what's with this white stuff? But apparently the weather gods tell us it will turn to rain later tonight and get above freezing. Wow, now that's a good thing.

hmm . not nice, but not will go away soon

          But the best thing right now is our Pizza is smelling wonderful in our coach and in a few minutes will taste awesome!

love this cauliflower pizza crust,  so light and gluten free
 as well,we don't need gluten free, but.. its healthier,
so they say

        That was our not so exciting day, always something to do to keep life interesting. This should be our last cold snap for the season according to the weather Gods, but ya never know. We will take it as it comes. Do we have a choice?
        Thanks for stopping by again hope you had a wonderful day too !

      " Update, just after I posted this blog we are having freezing rain" lets see how this pans out.

In this many days we will be heading south again
