OMG water finally came out! I left the faucet open then ran hot water in the bathroom sinks and showers to get the water heater pumping. After around 10 mins, drops started coming out, then a trickle, then finally full blast. I’m just happy nothing seems to have been broken. Thanks for the responses! Oh and to answer your question, we don’t even have a crawlspace, the house just sits straight on top of the foundation.
Here’s what it looks like under the sink:
The upper left tube is what I believe the hot water, the upper right the cold, and the one at the bottom is for the dishwasher. I don’t know if I’m capable of finding where exactly in the house the piping froze. Can I just wait it out since we’re well above freezing until sunset later?
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I also did the same, just dripped the cold faucets. Thankfully the rest of our plumbing seems to work fine though. And ironically our kitchen sink is on an island in the middle of the kitchen, so not by an exterior wall. The pipes under the sink don’t feel frozen and I left the doors open overnight to keep them exposed to the heating. I believe our house uses pex as well. Did you just leave it open on a hot setting? I’ll probably try doing that and see if it eventually flows.
Thanks for the response.
Where is your shutoff valve in case your pipe froze and split?
Do you mean the main shutoff for the entire house? It’s outside and I can shut if off if necessary. Every other faucet in the house works fine though, and there doesn’t appear to be a loss in pressure.
Feel the pipe under the sink. Is it frozen?
It doesn’t feel frozen. The pipe for the cold water even feels colder.
Try to get heat to the pipe by opening the cupboard doors to expose that wall to the heat.
Our kitchen sink is on an island in the middle of the kitchen, so it’s not by an exterior wall. I’ve also kept the cupboard doors under the sink open throughout the night.
Turn your home thermostat up a few degrees.
Out thermostat is at 70F the entire time. Do I need to turn it up even higher?
I hate when they do it in movies and the character takes so long to wake up and turn it off. I can feel my blood pressure rise the longer it goes.
Beautiful. I unfortunately migrated completely to soft synths now, so I no longer have a stack of keyboards. I kinda miss it sometimes, but I don’t miss hauling all of it when moving.
“I hope this email finds you before I do.”
Like another comment said, it would be interesting to know your age difference, and not to be judgy, how you met. Filipino family culture still has strong “traditional” roles (i.e. father works, mother cooks and cleans), so it’s possible she’s just operating on the culture she grew up with.
Fuji apples > everything else.
Thanks for the suggestion. Do they charge fees and are they not expensive?
Thanks. I might try Fidelity if no one else says otherwise.
Thank you! That’s a good idea and I will keep that in mind.
Also, Taylor Swift and memorializing all her exes by making a song about them.
Nah. At my flight last week, I pulled out my laptop to put in a separate tray. Apparently for that day, they wanted to keep laptops inside the bags. The line was so busy that when I asked if I need to remove my laptop, instead of just answering me, the agent kept on repeating “sir, what did I say? What did I say?” in an annoyed voice. And he literally was waiting for me to answer, when I didn’t know what he said because I was at the end of the line far from him. That’s not efficient.
If you’re visiting mostly tourist areas and big cities, you’ll be fine. You might notice some people doing a double take, but it should be pretty harmless. Now if you go to rural, bumfuck nowhere places, your experience might be different.

There’s definitely some talk on my wife’s side of the family, since her extended family has tons of kids, so they just expect anyone who gets married to have kids. We just tune it out. It also helps that we moved away so they can’t really bother much. My side doesn’t really care, or at least doesn’t care enough to ask or talk about it.
No to all. I get to spend all my time and money with my wife. We can travel, watch concerts, and do any activity without having to worry about babysitting, getting home early, etc.
Right? When I see a post of a video but it’s a twitter link, I don’t bother opening it because I know the video won’t load.
