Day 2 of no gas
OK, so I'm just slightly perturbed and am trying to see the positive as I face a very cold shower in an already cool climate. The plus is that I do have water and enough of it for a shower. There. That's a big enough plus if you ask me.
I'm not sure what happened but the gas guys did not come as scheduled today. I came home utterly exhausted from work. I'm not surprised since I didn't get to sleep until after midnight last night. I zonked out unexpectedly for almost 2 hours and am now wide awake.
Had a big salad for dinner with boiled shrimp but really felt like I needed more. Husband brought some hot roasted chicken back after his workout (and got a hot shower!) and I devoured a big piece - skin and all - and don't care. I need something more than the salad. I needed something hot. Oh, and it was really salty and delicious.
Tomorrow is the first day of school and I feel so unprepared. We have had back to back meetings for these five days without students and were given very little teacher work time. Oh well. I'll get done what I can and the rest will happen eventually.
Off to face an incredibly cold shower. Wish me luck!

Feel unprepared? Don't give homework for a few days---then you'll be the most loved and popular teacher ever! :P

I have to say that because I am so behind on blogs.... when I saw this title I thought you had a different "gas" problem. I am happy to see your belly is not the issue! LOL!! I am so sorry that you have to take cold showers. I have missed you so much Cindy! I am back and ready to take the bull by the horns!

Aww man, still no gas? Soooo sorry! I'm glad your hubby brought home some chicken for you---you needed some good protein. I hope you are able to get some work done for your classroom soon. It's not good that they didn't give you any time to prep. I feel a bit the same way with all the construction going on in my school--there is no time to get ready!!

The Husband turned down our water heater while we were on vacation and forgot to turn it back up. Of course I was the first one to shower, it was horrible. I live in the 21 century for a reason, for hot, running water! Add to it I take nearly scalding hot showers, i was not a happy camper!
Good luck at school!
