Not Fun

WaterAfter 2 weeks, an electrician, a plumber, a well company and 700 feet of electrical wire, our water woes appear to be over.  We’ve been suffering with a minute of water flow from our well followed by 30 seconds of no water.   Laundry has been piling up, dishes have been washed by hand and showers have been ever so interesting.  There are jars of water everywhere.  A pressure switch and check valve have been replaced, and the electrician has been called to come pick up his 700 feet of unnecessary wire.  Of course, the final step of the fix required bleach to be poured into our well so we’re still drinking bottled water and only washing our whites for now.  To pile onto the misery, we suffered a power outage during this mess the day after we took our generator in for repair.  We need a vacation.  Somewhere with lots of champagne.

    Geez! I had no idea y’all were without water that long. Hopefully things are getting back to normal. At least it’s an excuse to have a glass of wine anytime you want one!
