Life on My Own Terms

…’cause my day could have been really crappy.

It’s Friday. My morning to get up and walk Lucky – which I did (briefly) at 5:25 AM. Fed him and went back to bed.

My alarm went off at 6:25 AM. Rolled out of bed to hit the shower. Turned on the water. A few drops and then NOTHING. Checked the bathroom faucet = same. Kitchen faucet = same.

!!!!!!

By this point, Lucky is dancing around and needs to go out again. I throw on more suitable clothing and a coat and head outside just as our neighbor was exiting his house to go to work. I ask if he has water. He said he didn’t and that there was a water main break at [READACTED]. He chuckled that it was good he gets up early because he was able to shower before the agua went away. I made a face and said that husband and I were screwed…

We threw ourselves together and left the house a bit earlier than normal. Sure enough, blocked roads and people working.

Around 7:40 AM I got an email from our condo mgmt company notfying us of the break. Thanks guys!

I’m hopeful that it will be fixed by the time I get home. I really want to shower.
