  • No Water

    Ever since we've lived in this house our internet has had issues.  Nothing terrible but every once in a while for no apparent reason our internet would stop work for a day, we've replaced modems, routers and well, thats the extent of my knowledge about technology but I know Jed's worked on other stuff to make it better.  So finally last week when Jed needed the internet for work related stuff and it wouldnt work, again for no apparent reason, so he called Brighthouse.  They sent someone out to diagnose the problem and we ended up with new cables on the outside.   That was Friday, then this morning some guy showed up to dig a trench to bury the cables.  I pointed him in the right direction, expecting that he would start digging and the next thing I hear is drilling in the wall.  Then the frantic Brighthouse guy comes to my door, "I think I just hit a pipe. Why didnt you tell me that their were water pipes over there?"  I just stared at him and finally said, "I didnt know."   Even if I had expected him to drill a hole into the side of the house, I still wouldnt have thought to mention that there was a bathroom over there unless he had asked.  I just dont think about stuff like that!  However I figured when he said he was here to dig a trench that he was talking about working in the ground not the wall.  Anyway, I called Jed, while he called his supervisor so now Jed is home and there is a plumber on his way to fix it.  Oh, and we are currently without water.  Hopefully the plumber get here soon.  

    In other news, last weekend was Joy's graduation party.  I had a whole post about it and other things we did lined up but our internet cut out right before I published. :(  A picture will have to do.

    Also last week Sethy started swimming (with floaties) which is a huge accomplishment considering how afriad of the pool he's been.  Now that Evan has someone to play with they spend a lot more time in the water.
