Super Stupendous Seasonably Sunday

Good Morning
Changed my water heater yesterday and found out that it's common for our town's heaters to blow up. We recently got new water meters that make our homes a closed system. It's kind of like taking a glass jar, filling it with water, caping it and putting it on the stove...something is going to give. So, not only did I have to replace the heater but I had to install an expansion tank like you find on a boiler for heat.

I'll be calling the water company tomorrow to see who has to pay for all this.

Today, just spending it with my Grandchildren.
