We're here, we're OK... Water got fixed while we were out getting lunch.
Hullo! We're back :~) Water's fixed :~)
Been outside with the hose running all the air out of the line. Gonna refill all our emergency water, and then we'll be sitting pretty again :~)
Well I'm glad. Not having power is one thing, but not having water is a real pain, especially when you have horses. Do you know what the problem was, or do you really just not care so long as it got fixed?
Hope everything came out okay...
Well, the store owner told us, but he's hard to understand because he's Korean... as best I could tell, the doohickey went all wonky and was leaking out of the thingamajig. Cost a couple hundred bucks.
Well...allrighty then. That explains *everything*!
Ungh...looking like I may be here late today. If it *really* starts looking nasty, could someone stick Cisco in the house? I think I left it unlocked anyway...oops.
Either way...I owe you guys pizza or something like that later this week...
LOL! I can just imagine the conversation that Hair had trying to interpret between the two Korean guys. A tape of that would be priceless!
No problem - right now it's sunny and rather cheerful, but if it starts snowing, we'll go get him. Looked like he could use another bale of straw in his dog house... we'll get you one when we go to the feed store next.
We've filled everything that will hold water with water, I'd suggest doing the same when you get home. A five gallon bucket will get you two flushes :~)
City Wok! :-)
He really loves that doghouse...even on the weekends he sometimes asks to go out and then dives in there. Or else sits on the roof and watches the world go by.
I should pick up a couple of containers to use for emergency water. It's one of those things you don't think about until it's too late!
It's snowin' up here again. Sorta. Off and on for the last hour or so.
The whole morning has been an exercise in basic communications... I felt like Kevin Costner with the indians for a while there.... "Ta-tanka!" "Ohhhhh Tatanka!"
"Damn mongorians! Stop tearing down my chity wall!"
LOL.
Finally caught your word count, though you'll probably leap ahead once you transcribe the day's scrivenings.
We can do it! Three days and less than 7k left!
Happy Birthday to Steve!!!
I'm going to have to borrow that word. Vey nice.
Hoping to make 44k today, anyway. Don't have much in the way of scrivenings...it's been too busy, plus because I'm working on the last few scenes, I'm fighting perfectionitis.
And evil chick keeps showing new sides. Have I mentioned I need a rewrite?
I'm in the home stretch. < 4K to go!
