Oh what a start to my day. Remember that we live in an old farmhouse, right? Well, with that joy of country living comes lots of fun.....not! Again, last night we lost water. Went out to mess with the pump to get it to kick back on. Nope!!!! No power to the pumphouse. Very irritating.
Next problem.....basement flooded. Both in one night......totally unrelated. Just love trapsing around in nasty water in my boots! lol
Well, this morning the repairman came and worked on getting the basement empty and the sump pump fixed, as well as temporarily getting the water pump fixed until Monday. Hopefully we will continue to have water all weekend.
That brings me to the topic. Not having water sucks. You absolutely don't realize how much you need and use water in everything you do. I stayed home this morning until the repairman finished. Great.....I can use this time to get a few things done around the house while he's working. Dishes.....no water; Laundry.....no water; Mop Kitchen Floor....no water; Clean Bathroom...no water. Every time I turned around to do something, I realized I needed water for that.
Water is one of the basic things, but it is so very important in our lives. There are a lot of things like that. The smallest thing can make such a big impact. I think that's why its so important to appreciate every single thing that God has blessed us with. You never do know when you will be without it.
So go turn on a faucet and enjoy that running water!!!!!
