I didn't get the impression that the OP was referring to herself and certainly not asking for help for herself.

That was a good one! But not to worry, 99.99 % of us who read your original post understood you were not referring to yourself.

I experienced frozen water pipes before, twice in fact, and it ain't no fun. 

Prayers to all who have to go through this awful mess.

Water mains are also breaking around here left and right due to the cold.

One of my brothers lives in the greater Dallas area. They had been out of electricity for 2 days. Had electricity until early this morning at the same time that the pipe busted and the first floor is flooded. A plumber is not able to get there until next week sometime.

They have 2 children who have been going to school from home--remotely --who knows now--a high schooler and an 8th grader.

@Anonymous032819.  Pipes are bursting in Northern California?  They won't cause damage until they thaw.  In the case of Texas there are always carpet baggers and scammers from other states that move in supposedly to do repairs but take the money and run.  Not really enough locals to do what will be needed.  Their troubles are just beginning.

My apologies.

I forgot that I have to put in every post that I make that I live in California.

I figured that by putting because of the deep freeze, people would use logic and know that Texas was and still is, in that deep freeze.

This post was never about me.

But I guess I have to spell things out for you.

I will try to remember to do that from now on.

How about this?

I live the the state of California.

I do not have any broken water pipes.

I am fine.

The poor people living in Texas and other states that are caught in the deep freeze, are now experiencing busted water pipes.

The plumbers in the state of Texas and other states going through the deep freeze, will be making lots of money answering calls to fix those busted pipes, that broke because of the deep freeze in the state of Texas as well as the other states caught in the deep freeze.

I live in the state of California.

I am not affected by the deep freeze.

My pipes are fine.

My pipes are not broken.

Is that better and more clear, and more easily understood, that it's about the people caught in the deep freeze, and not about me, and never was?

What are you, ten years old?  But then again, most ten year olds aren't rude.

I don't understand the need for every sentence to be it's own paragraph and for the 3-5 spaces between each sentence.

Those posts end up unnecessarily long.
