Bonjour,
Joe took the kids to school. Then, we went down to the other house to work on getting the rest of the stuff. I finished the kids' bedroom and the closet. On Monday, I will have to tackle the kitchen and the pantry.
The pump wasn't coming on. Joe changed out the plug. The water in the well is very low because it is so dry. We are praying for rain. It would take a lot of rain to make the well fill up, but the holding tank up here is set up so that it catches rain water. If we get a good rain, the rain water would fill the holding tank.
There have been several things that broke down today. This morning, the hallway bathroom floor was flooded because the toilet was leaking. Then, this afternoon, the other toilet started pouring water, and I got the drain plug stuck in the bathroom sink. We are very low on water; so, we turned the valves to the toilets off for now.
After school, the kids played while I worked on folding laundry and Joe worked on installing another ceiling fan. Then, we went into town. We stopped at the grocery store and then went out to eat.
Bonnie fell asleep on the couch after we got home. The boys got to stay up a little later than normal since it is Friday.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
