  • I didn't get much sleep last night. About 1.30AM, as I was typing away on the puter, Duller came in and informed me we had no water. Do y'all have any idea how hard it is to find a plumber (well digger in this case) in the wee hours on party night? Much less one who's willing to drive out to the boonies. We finally did find someone who said he was about 20 minutes away, but wouldn't be out for at least an hour. Apparently, he wanted to have a pot of coffee first, bless his heart, just in case he'd had one too many at his cousin's party. When he finally got here, just after 3, Duller dragged out the 5-million candlepower (think stadium) light and trudged out to the well with him. About an hour and just under $200 later, the water flowed once more. Around 5.30 (or so) AM, I finally managed to drift off for a few hours. I tried to get up around 9.30, but I can't pull that off anymore. I finally gave up about 10:30 and curled up with my Sudoku book. Next thing I knew, it was 2.45PM! Now if we could just get the conditioner people to get off their keisters and figure out why our water is tan...

    Y'all have a JESUS-filled day!

  • WOW! What a hectic busy day for you guys. Praying that the rest of the week is not so eventful.

  • Omigosh! What a night you had!  I'd be pilin' all the kids up in bed with me and sayin' "We ARE gonna take a nap whether y'all like it or not"  LOL  Bless your heart Sophie!  I think I'd buy me some gallon jugs of water from the store until the well water wasn't tan anymore.  Sounds like it's pumpin' some silt, sand, or dirt of some kind up with it maybe? That happened at my grandparents house one time years ago. 

    Thanks for all that sweet stuff you said!  You know I just love ya to pieces!  (((HUGS)))....and hope you have a much more peaceful night tonight!  :yes:
