Say, did your water pump repairman make a showing today? I wouldn’t want to be him if he didn’t! LOL!

I just went to let Peaches back inside and it was lightly raining! I hope it continues. We saw some actual heavy rain down in Bryan and on our way home today. It was hard to see the road especially when I was behind a big ol’ truck for miles and miles that kept a large spray going. I was very glad to get around him!

Yes, he came this morning while I was still asleep and when I didn’t wake up when he knocked, he called his dad (who is home sick with the flu) and had him call me. Fortunately this time I woke up when the phone rang. I didn’t hear it ring last week.

He said he did more troubleshooting, primed the pump, and it kicked on until it hit 80 psi, then kicked off like it’s supposed to do.
But I don’t think he waited around to see what would happen when the pressure slowly dropped back to 60 psi, which is when the pump should kick on again. He just came to the house to tell me I had water. I did but there definitely wasn’t as much water pressure as there should be. And not a half hour after he left, I had no water again.

I called John to tell him and as usual, I got his voicemail. And he obviously isn’t checking it while he’s sick because he never called back - - just like yesterday. I hope his son checked it whenever he got home and will come out tomorrow morning before the heavy rain gets here. Another night of going to bed early. *sigh*

I see a small patch of rain on the radar over your area that’s about to move off and another one south of you that MIGHT give you a little more.

We’re under a flood watch tomorrow through Thursday. NOT good if the well pump has to be replaced.

Yuck having to start off your trip home in the rain. At least it wasn’t raining for the whole trip.

I’ll bet the kitties were happy to see you. >^..^<
