Too little sleep -- middle child up at 4:00 am. I'm cold... I can't get warm no matter what I do, I think I may be getting sick.

[livejournal.com profile] brian1789 is out of town. And the water heater died. So I can't even get a shower.

I just left a message on your home answering machine, but I'll put it here, too: Feel free and come over to take a shower at my apartment. I'm working from home this morning and a bit under the weather, and [livejournal.com profile] clairaide is in bed -- and you're welcome to come here.

Thanks, I appreciate the offer. Unfortunately,I didn't get this until later in the day, after the kids were home (I went to the doctor in the morning).

*hugs*

I'm glad Hope offered her shower. Ours is too far away to be practical for you!

Did you ever get a shower?

No, but I have a large brewpot on the stove which I intend to bring to a boil, after which I plan to dump it into the bathtub (I may do this two or three times), add eucalyptus bath oil to and cut with cold water till it's tepid. I realize, the laws of thermodynamics being what they are and the temperature in the room being what it is, I still won't have a lot of water to work with, but it should get me clean enough for tomorrow : > I'm moving a space heater into the bathroom so that I won't catch pneumonia during this process : >

And tomorrow, hopefully, I can get the heater guy to come out and look at the water heater.

You know, you *can* come use our shower. It's really no problem.

I know I can. It's just I have a lot to do around the house tonight, and I have to be out of the house in the morning. Sigh.
