Sleep fought hard to stay away.

Bart arose from bed about the time I closed my eyes. It was not long before I cover my head with a pillow escaping the rising sun.

It feels like a week packed itself into the last two days.  When I woke after 3 hours sleep Bart told me all the people he talked with and the Serve Pro guy stopped by saying, “It looks like you are doing a very good job.”

Bart did go to the store while I slept for drinking water. Later someone from town brought buckets of water for flushing the toilet.  Finally we connected with our neighbor and water is flowing through a garden hose! Joy fills our hearts as water arrives to wash our hands.

It feels like God is saying, “Clean the basement!”

The city will pay to put in a new line, so we are not spending money for anything but water so far.

I did ask the water guy about the portability of the water.

He said, “I can’t tell you it is safe because it is going through a garden hose.”

As the conversation changed to the life we lived drinking out of garden hoses and playing on such dangerous toys as seesaw. The younger man who has young kids coveted those days.

I am drinking some of the water but with my refined taste buds the hose is not preferable. Maybe I will ask my neighbor to fill my pitcher in her house and bypass the hose for drinking water?

Thankfully we have not lost anything important, I did find a wet box of Christmas decorations we used this year but when I dumped it out everything inside was in good shape.

God is so very good. The mouse came in the mail today and it took a little finagling to get it to connect to my computer. What I notice the most is the ease of the keyboard of my desktop compared to the laptop. I am Thankful for both.

I am trying this writing everyday on my blog. The writing is a bit different. Do any of you have a preference? I do need to get to bed it is 3:36 A.M.

God Bless You with a wonderful night’s sleep and a day filled with Love! In Christ Jesus Name I Pray! Amen.
