I remember when living in the Catskill regions (N.Y.), we used to buy a special electric tape to bind around water's pipes to prevent freezing.
Maybe it is available in Canada also.
Warmest hugs, Roberta

I hope all is going well Carolyn. Your water pipes not working must be an absolute nightmare - never experienced that here in Australia. I will certainly be praying for you all. Love Chris

Carolyn, it is hard for us to imagine such COLD weather here in Australia. Even in winter it does not get down to your extreme conditions, and especially where I am living. Glad to her John's eyes are now cleared up, you two have certainly had a lot to deal with over past months. Pray for an ease in your weather conditions and safe travels, must be scary driving all the distances you cover. Do hope that you soon get water flow to those frozen pipes. Take care/

Carolyn in the UK we have a saying 'it never rains but it pours' You sound as if your spending a lot of time driving in poor conditions. Any hospital/medical appointment is stressful with out a long drive in your winter months. Thinking positive thoughts for al of you

Oh, that is bad news. Did you get a good report on yours and John's eyes? Shingles in the eyes is scary. Also praying that you don't have burst pipes when the lines finally thaw. We live in the south, but when a freeze is predicted, Hubby always leaves a faucet dripping as our water lines are exposed.

If you use a mouse at computer, try placing it over some of the words we've written and rolling the middle "wheel". Did the letters enlarge? Works for mine.

Wow that is horrible. Do you ever leave a tap running. I have heard this can prevent the lines from freezing.

Praying for you. You probably know that already but I thought I mention it anyway. They always say to let the line drip during those extreme cold spells. It supposed to not let it freeze this way. I hope that is true.
