Day 332

Fire and Ice

Some say the world will end in fire,
 

Some say in ice.
 

From what I’ve tasted of desire
 

I hold with those who favor fire.
 

But if it had to perish twice,
 

I think I know enough of hate
 

To say that for destruction ice
 

Is also great
 

And would suffice.

-Robert Frost

Electricity was on yesterday and last night. I don't trust that it will stay on but at least for a day it is alive and I have heat and the well pumps water. The worst of the cold has passed. Today I find the broken pipes.

They do not hide. They let their presence be known. The sound and a fury of plumbing expense.
