Holly’s Happenings

And yes, he said he’d check it twice…LOL! But will it show that I’ve been naughty, or nice? I have a difficult time telling people what I’d like for a gift, I have had for a very long time. Mostly because I just don’t like people buying things for me. I’m a very picky person and it’s not easy for me to pretend I like something when I really don’t. I tried to tell him that anything would be just fine as long as it wasn’t exercise equipment. I had a bad experience on one of the ellipticals at a gym I used to go to, so I have this phobia about exercise equipment now…LOL!

I’ve been trying to get in touch with an old friend for a couple of weeks now. Initially, she got in touch with me through my sister and told my sister to have me call her. Not a problem, I had her phone number, so I called right away. Now, this is the only friend I had through out high school that I actually kept in touch with after we graduated. Granted, we aren’t in constant contact with each other, but we do touch base once or twice a year.

So I called her shortly after my sister told me to call her, and got her voice mail, so I left a message. I’ve called her three more times over the past couple of weeks at varying times of the day, always getting her voice mail, and yes, I’m sure it’s her because her message says “Hi, this is “so and so”. I tell you, I feel like I’m being avoided in the same way that I would be if I were standing in the middle of the local mall dressed in leather lingerie. Fortunately, I’m sitting at my computer in my flannel pj pants instead!

From the moment we woke up this day went down the tubes and it hasn’t come close to coming out of them yet.  When we woke up this morning I went to get water for coffee and there was no water coming out of the tap.  Fortunately I had some water in a jug, so I made coffee from that.  My hubby went downstairs in the crawl space to see what was going on and found that the water pump was hotter than all get outs!  So he unplugged it in hopes that if it cooled down all would be well.  I guess thinking that it would be something simple was simply too much to ask because almost 9 hours and a brand new water pump later, we still have no water.

The worst part is the fact that when the old pump was disconnected, there was no water in the lines at all, which is making my husband wonder if maybe the well has gone dry?  But with what we know about water pumps and wells, if the well had gone dry we would have had some sort of indications before the water just completely running out.  I don’ t know what’s going on, but what I do know is that not being able to use the bathroom SUCKS!  LOL
