We had no water this morning. Some prepper I turned out to be. I had meant to fill a bathtub last night before the freeze, but I forgot.
You could bathe in your pond?
I was imagining last night, while standing out in the cold, whether I would die if I had to spend the night on my back patio. I figured I would have survived. Then I imagined whether I could swim across the pond. I figured I would die. But then I remembered about those Polar Bear Club people. Maybe it's just mind over matter, up to a point. But, spoiler alert, I never tried. I just went back inside, and it felt even warmer, after my thought exercises.
It was also interesting to see our Malamute and how he felt about the weather. Didn't phase him at all. He stayed out for a while, enjoying the brisk breeze. It's about the only time that dumb dog with dumb eyes ever looks dignified. Facing into a freezing wind and being all stoic. Then he comes back in and looks at you with dumb eyes and you remember what a food stealing dummy he is.

Looking as smart as ever
