Water

You never relize just how much you need running water until yours is gone for a few hours. I was cleaning and wanted something to drink, so I headed over to the magical refrigerated to get water from the door, I have had this fridge for 7 or so years but still think it is amazing to get ice and water right from a door! I got the ice, then went to the water,nothing came out, I tried again still nothing, great now this is broke! We seem to be going threw appliances like paper plates so it didnt surprise me this was now broke. So I head to the sink, no water there either. Great! Come to find out , the water had been shut off due to a mix up with the bill.The mix up being my husband forgot to pay it, again! he has done this at least 4 times . And this water company does not play , if it is due on the first you best pay it on the first, or else on the second it will be cut off, no past due notice, no call, nothing!
So , I am deciding , do I wake him up ( he works the 3rd shift) and ask him if he paid the bill, maybe it isnt late , maybe something is wrong, or do I let him sleep and when he wakes up he can see what its like to not have water for a shower or anything, maybe then he will pay it on time. I decide it is time to teach him a lesson. But now I am stuck with no water, every kid in the house now has to use the bathroom , and I aint talking about peeing, we cant flush the toilets. I also need to cook dinner, and you cant make rice or potatoes without water. I use the last bit of water we had in a jug to get dinner started, and go in there and wake him up. enough is enough. I am sweaty and thirsty , nothing here to drink, cant make tea or kool aid, He isnt being taught a lesson, I am, to start paying the water bill instead of letting him let it sit there ! I have to wait about an hour and a half for the water to be turned back on and when it is , I am doing a happy dance for running water!! I run and flush all the toilets , get me a big glass of nice cold water from he magic door and fill up two jugs in case we forget again next month.
