I bought this beautiful pot of spider chrysanthemums recently. I love the bright yellow colour.
Never a dull moment, husband M's mother called early one morning. It seems the rental water heater in her condo where she lives was not working. (Why do these things happen in winter?) Most people here rent their water heaters from the gas company. We went to the gas company's website. It informed us that we had to contact an area contractor for water heater problems. We did a search on area contractors and called a few of them. The first one went through a list of all his charges in a heavily accented voice. It would be $60 just for the first visit. Luckily, the next guy seemed more informed and told us we had to contact Direct Energy, as they look after rental water heaters. The problem was taken care of by Direct Energy, as it is a rental. In fact, she got a new water heater as the sensor was broken. It would have been at no cost, but they charged for a new gas pipe that was required because the old one did not fit on the new hot water tank. At any rate, it was a relief to find the right company and have the problem fixed correctly.
