EMOM'S MOUNTAIN NEWS*2013-7-28-Sunday

Welcome home, dear hearts, welcome home.

Get on in here and grab some coffee or or or and and and. Let me tell y'all that it has been one rotten week... I even did the panic thing a few times. What? Me? Panic? I hope to tell you I did!

First of all, the Houdini dog went missing for 30 +/- hours. With all the rain and fog, he was bone dry when he knocked at the door. Was sooo thirsty and hungry. And can you say glued to MOM's side or feet or? Physically he wasn't hurt tho. I was sooo relieved...

Now, let me tell you I spent a lot of time on the phone...To friends, neighbors and former co-workers in Law enforcement! Oh yeah, I've had enuf.. see pic below! 

Then, on Wednesday, I called the prosecutor's office about court on Thursday. I didn't have to go in because of some kind of meeting. Ok, I can handle that... and I went to take a nap. Woke up to NO WATER! Nada zilch none...no water. Called JCC.. He came out the next morning... The problem, which I thot was the pressure gauge thingy, was not the problem. It was my well pump... a submersible that hangs about 125 to 160 feet below the surface. So, my Brats, I have been without water since Wednesday. 

I made hundreds of calls... trying to find repairmen... or women... No dice... sheesh! Now, you can say PANIC!!!!!!!!!

Well, I've gotten it all straightened out now. Should have ''city'' water meter hooked up this week and JCC, that rotten kid will be out Wednesday this week with a ditch witch and lay the line to the house from the meter pit. Meter pit was done a couple of years ago. Thank you, God!

A few other interesting things have happened... Found a muddy shoe print on the arm of my new wooden put-together rocker. And some one had been in my pickup overnite also. Ceiling lite came on when I opened the door. I NEVER use the lite...EVER. There's more stuff been messed with...but again, that's ok... My dogs have water from the little pond and the Water Fairies here in the area have been been keeping me supplied with water. I made a fresh pot of coffee... Scrubbed myself the best I could...Thank goodness for all my boyscout trainings... lolol And a big thank you to Anna (new name:Ditch Witch-gotcha) and Elmer. Dotty and Butch. And a special thanks to Jennifer and Edwards and crew for their help! Couldn't have made it without you all. Well, ratz! Running out of space again... Hopefully more tomorrow.

Take care all of mine. Go in safety always. Remember that when things get really bad, you can always spritz yourself with Listerine... lololhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6gLHpGnXvc thot I'd try this... one of my fave's.

Many hugs, much love and lots of laffter... meems
