Nothing like waking up on a Monday morning and not having water!

There was a water main break and they couldn't find it. They shut off all water until they found the break. I had no water until 8:00 and when it came back on, it was too late to shower for work.

Luckily, we had bottled water and H ran to the store for larger jugs. I needed a shower to wake up, I am groggy and possibly smelly too.

Hope this isn't the way the rest of the week goes!!

ETA- spelling.

  • That sucks!!  I think that is worse than last week when I woke up with no electric.

  • Ugh, not a good way to start a Monday. The week can only get better, right?!

  • Ugh. That's an awful start to the week. 

    Although I can provide a small tip--whenever our water wasn't working before, I wound up using a little rubbing alcohol to try to combat any sweat funk since I wasn't able to shower either. It's annoying, but I at least felt better about going to work without worrying about gagging anybody.

  • Thanks everyone! 

    We have water.   The situation for the water main is worse than it seems.  We have a water tower and this main is down the hill from the tower.  The main breaking caused the water tower to drain, flooding most of the houses in this one neighborhood.  I feel so bad for them.  I hope these people didn't lose too much.  Me being without water for the morning isn't nearly as bad as a flooded garage and/or basement.
  • Glad you didn't get the worst of it.
  • I agree with goatlady, that at least you didn't get the worst of it! It still really sucks that you didn't have access this morning!

  • Oh man, that sounds like a terrible situation for those people. I'm glad you aren't having to deal with that mess and you have water again.
