My future sister-in-law's house lost gas so they went to her parents house (who had gas), because having a 1.5yo kid in a house with no heat isn't good.

    Ah yes that definitely sucks! I get to call in from home so I'm usually quite comfy on the couch.

    Oh man, yes a 4 day old is definitely more fragile than a 1.5yo. Can't imagine being put in that situation, but its definitely something for me to keep in mind over the next few years.

    However, I normally do the laundry and clean up the house during the phone cons, which is what I'm doing now.
