I totally forgot to drain my water hose today. It froze the whole hose and all the way to the hook up at the house. I poured a bunch of hot water on the spigot and it is still stuck solid. UGH! I am so frustrated. I had to haul all my water using my kitchen sink tonight and goodness knows how long it will take me to get things thawed out. I usually drain everything back every night. I just forgot. sigh. I was going to get one of those heated hoses for Christmas but was reading on line about how bad the water tastes out of one of those hoses. Anybody use a heated hose? I need about 100 feet and the one I looked at costs about $200. I was so mad about freezing things up tonight that was starting to look cheap but I was worried about the water taste. One of my boys is very picky about his water. I use heated buckets, just messed up on the filling part tonight.. I hate filling buckets in my kitchen sink. sigh. Its gonna be a long winter. Back to pouring some more hot water. I hope the sun comes out tomorrow..... LOL, starting to sound like Annie.
