I am really impatient with being ailing. Like completely unreasonable and irrational.
That sounds reasonable to me!
And I'd like to point out that in a lot of places they don't actually turn off your water when you don't pay your bill since people need water to live and all.
Yeah, you know, if our water has never been turned off here, it's because they give you many notifications. Because there were several years where bills were paid very erratically, between my father's dementia and my mother taking over.
Jesus, actual plumber's crack. Fight the cliche, dude.
And now she is doing laps in her crib (not crying) because she doesn't want to sleep.
Ha! The burst of energy before collapse. I wish I got one of those.
In water news apparently my city is doing their cleaning the pipes thing or whatever it is because the chemical smell is super strong. Do Not Like. Grateful for my water cooler.

It lasted for 45 minutes! I should put the fitbit on her.
Also, I should note, wrt water cutoff, you can totally physically turn it back on. Legally, well. But you can go out to the meter and turn the valve. I have a special tool for that, but a long reach and wrench will do it. You can always turn it back off...
Any mathy people willing to help me?
I have to store 100 boxes (of buche de Noel) and need to know if our freezer is big enough. I am literally helpless with this -- I'm having anxiety just thinking about it.
The box dimensions, in inches, are: 5 1/8 x 7 7/8 x 4 1/4
The dimensions of the freezer, in inches, are: 20 x 61 1/2 x 25
Any help so very much appreciated.
First question I'd ask is which are the dimensions of the bottom of the boxes, because obviously a solution that stores them sideways won't work.
Sorry! The boxes are 5 1/8 tall, 7 7/8 long, and 4 1/4 wide.
Are the freezer dimension the inside of the freezer? If so, you have 30,750 cu in of freezer space. Each box is 171.53 cu in, so 100 of them would be 1715m cu in which is 55% of your freezer. So you ought to be fine. Want me to optimize your packing plan? That will take longer.
I've never had my water turned off, but given I've had pretty much everything else at one point or another I'm sure it was an oversight.
But I was at Costco a while ago and on impulse signed up for water delivery for the WI house. (We have well water there. Which is ok but kind of metallic and not that great tasting.)
OMG. It is WONDERFUL. Ice cold delicious water in one of those office coolers but also steaming hot water at at the ready. I really want one for home in Chicago even though I have no justification or space. Seriously I am so in love. And the Costco price ($1 month for the machine and $6 per 5 gallon bottle) is not bad. The guy comes by every two weeks and drops off/picks up.
