Yep, we've been without water in our house for about 24 hours now and it might be another 24 before we get it back. I'm not really sure what happened. It has something to do with the pipes in the ground outside. It has been wicked cold here (well, at least for West Texas) and so it may be weather related. The nice thing about renting is, we do not have to pay for the repairs!
So last night, JJ and I went to the store and got one of those 5 gallon jugs of water to wash and flush with! This morning I heated up water on the gas stove so I could wash my hair and take a little sponge bath. I was thanking the Lord that we still had gas and electricity and although our minor inconvenience is nothing compared to the electricty problems my team in Mwanza, Tanzania deals with on a daily basis, I felt a little kinsmanship there! (Lindermans, Millers, Baileys, Guilds and Groens, we're thinking of you all!)
It's funny how much more I appreciated the things we do have when we lost our water. It would be an awful time to lose our gas heat! We had light so we could see where we were going last night and this morning. We could check our e-mail and recharge our cell phones. Funny the things we tend to take for granted, isn't it?
