There was not a good time to fix until Monday night. We had turned off the hot water, but at least had cold. Oh and did I mention that it was still pretty cold outside. Well even with heaters down there, pipe glue has trouble sticking at 20 degrees and dropping.
Leonard, bless his heart, came over to help. Now see he is NEVER cold!!! Well you missed your once in a life-time opportunity to see him just shiver. 
After both guys getting just soaked,and running into more leaks, the glue wouldn't hold. I felt so bad for them. (Thank you guys for trying!!!)They waited for a couple days when it was warmer and it was fixed for about 2 hours and it leaked again!!! So here we are 5 days with no hot water. (We went to a friends to shower! :)
Friday morning, I am already at work, Ben gets up and finds he has another flat tire!! (This time it was fixable, just a nail I think) He finally gets some friends to get him to work. One of the friends, Don Shirk, took the tire and fixed it for him. He came over to put it on and had heard about our pipes. He found another kind of fitting and put it on for us as well. This time it actually worked!!! So we have been enjoying our hot water ever since. I believe God was teaching us patience and F.R.O.G.!(fully rely on God!)
