I am waiting for the hot water heater guy to call to let me know when he will be coming over. It is not considered an emergency since I have cold water.

Took me a long time to clean up the area. DH had been promising to do it but never had the time. I have the time, just not the physical ability, till it was imperative.

Garage temperature was about 90 degrees.

Geez, most of the stuff should have gone in the garbage or recycler. We get boxes and paper filler every week, he just piled it on the side out of the way, until the water heater exploded and soaked the cardboard and stuffing.

I left a bunch of ladders, suitcases, etc in his spot, my passive/aggressive protest!

The utilities company is giving a rebate for an energy/water saving heater. If the heater is going to break, at least it has good timing. Just uses money we do not want to spend on it.
