Ever wonder what life is like without running water?

Well, you are welcome to come on over to our house and find out.

Yesterday morning, the door jam out to the garage and the ceiling close to the door jam in the garage, started leaking. At first we thought it was from the shower (mom, dad and Tara having all taken one). It was odd because for a while it was leaking in the house, in the door jam from the laundry room to the craft room. But now it had moved. We waited.
It just got worse.
We put buckets under the drips.
We called Daniel Hill.
He informed us that we have a leak. :-)
The rest of the Hill family is coming home today with Olivia (!!!!!!) which is wonderful, but also meant that Daniel would be unable to come check it out.
Mom was worried that the ceiling would cave in.
So she cut the power on the well pump.
The dripping stopped; we have no water.
The plumber is coming today, at any time from noon to 4.

We're hoping for noon. Showers would feel really good right now.

On the bright side, however - you sure conserve a lot of water when you wash dishes in only 2 pans of water.
