Isn't it amazing

Isn’t it amazing the things we can take for granted and how we miss them when they aren’t there? Turn on a switch and we have lights, television, and computer. Pick up the phone and we can talk to almost anyone we want or in today’s world we can at least talk to their machine. Thirsty, dirty, need clean clothes or dishes turn on a faucet, shower or washing machine.

Uuummm that is unless your day started like mine this morning and that faucet is dry. We aren’t on city water and sewage but have a well and this morning the well pump it isn’t working. To make things even better the well service people say it will be next week ... late next week before they can get out here to check it out. Going without water for a few hours seems a trial; days of no water seem an impossibility..... a week *groan*

Well at least there is the laundromat for clothes. We can shower at relatives or even the health club where we are members if necessary, although my guys have this real aversion to using public showers.

Yep, there are many, many things we take for granted.

In other areas of life I have completed two books so far for the August Reading Challenge and hope to get reviews written and posted soon. Well as long as the phone and electric still work *bg*
