It looks to be another rainy kind of day, so I am going to hunker down and just work all day in the flat while it rains outside and gives us some much needed water.
They put a watering restriction out where the farmers can no longer water the crops, which seems a bit drastic but maybe it is that drastic now. The showers at the beach are all off because of the lack of water, telling me that the situation is more dire than most people think. I’m not sure how the water storage works but the local contractor told me that they can’t use water at the cooling corp anymore and that it must be pretty bad. I am trying to do my part and not use a lot of water, washing clothes and taking showers, but I still need a shower each day. My hot water heater has decided it also needs a break as it stopped working a few weeks ago and needs to be changed out. It is going to take all day to do, nine hours as my friend told me, but I think the two of us can get it switched out and working by the end of the day tomorrow when we do the job. The HVAC worker is meeting me at my flat at 8am with the new heating device and we are going to do the job in a nine hour window as he says we can do, and we will have a new propane water heater by the end of the day tomorrow.
