A day in the life of a camper

And now, boys and girls, let me give you some advice. If you ever get the idea that you are going to live in a camper in the winter time....don't. Today Papa is in northern IN on a Disaster Relief trip. I am here alone and the furnace has decided that it isn't going to run. It keeps trying, but won't come on. Thankfully, I have an electric heater, but that won't keep the holds warm tonight. I know I have propane because the tank is full and the stove works. I am hoping that something is frozen and when it gets up to the 40's today, it will thaw. And Tim will be up in about an hour, so between the two of us hopefully we can figure it out.
Other than that we are well. They took the last reading on the house on Monday and hopefully it comes back okay and then they can start putting the house back together.
And Jimmy isn't having much fun either. The water from the power washers keeps freezing up. It's hard to clean up a flood if you can't use the power washers. That's why he's coming home tomorrow and going back up on Sunday. But, this too will pass. That's Biblical, you know....and God will get us through this. Love you all
