We have five bathrooms in our house. That's a lot of bathrooms, you say. I know, right? Usually bathrooms have basic things like toilets, showers or bathtubs, sinks, running water, lights, fixtures that work...you know, stuff like that. Between our five bathrooms we have all those things! Just not all in one bathroom. The bathroom with the hot shower has no light. The bathroom with the tub, well, the tub is cracked, unusable. The bathroom with a light has no shower or water heater. You know, etc etc! Last night when people wanted to bathe, our rechargeable lamp had used all its charge (of course) so we had to stay up late to let it charge before taking baths in the bathroom with hot water but no light. And tonight, no bathroom has water because, surprise surprise, one of our bathrooms (that had no shower, water heater or sink) is getting remodeled but the worker couldn't get the pipes fixed before leaving for the day, so he shut our water down! Never fear, one of our bathrooms has a bak, one of those "indoor reservoirs" for splash baths. You know, the bathroom with no light. A cold splash bath would not be too bad after such a hot muggy day. And the lantern is charged and ready. The problem? Well, the shower is so close to the bak that when we DID have water, we took showers and the soapy water has all splashed into the bak, so the water is dirty!
So tonight we are all sweaty and hot, our kitchen sink is full of dirty dinner dishes, the clothes washer is filled and overflowing with dirty clothes, it's raining outside, water water everywhere and not a drop to...take a bath with, wash clothes with or wash dishes with! No need to get upset, it's just life right? A free evening! So I spent the evening "window shopping" on Target's website! :)
Hilarious Jana! So glad Target could bring a little sunshine to your bath room quandries! Love you!
ReplyDeleteHi Friend! Hard to know which is more important, internet or water! :) lol
Delete:lol: wish i could pass you some water! we had warnings that ours would be shut off for over 24 hours this weekend for city 'improvements' so i filled every imaginable container. as it turned out, the water was out for only about an hour!! yay! but now i'm left with more water than i need...
ReplyDeleteYes, crazy to be "out of water" when we are surrounded with it on all sides! As soon as we get our water turned back on, I am going to fill all containers with water too!
DeleteI should come and rework your bathrooms. I just redid the floor in the master tub area. NO MORE cracked grout and rocking tiles!! Whew! I hope to post it ot the blog this week.
ReplyDeletewish I could come for a visit, someday...
We would have a lot of fun "re working" all kinds of stuff in the house! Looking forward to your bathroom blog :)
DeleteLOL. If it's not one thing, it's half a dozen other things!!
ReplyDeletelove you, Mom
Boy isn't that right!! Trying to keep the goal in mind :)
DeleteMy heart goes out to you in your waterless situation. Been there, done that. It's much worse than no internet, in my opinion!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I found you on the WOTH writer's blog. Nice to "meet" you!
Hi Jamie Jo! Nice to "meet" you too. I enjoyed visiting your blog this morning. By the way, we have our water back :)
