Life in a different place
There are tiny things that I notice around the house period. Stuff that is of little importance to anyone else but I will take a moment to make note of them period. We pump our own water period. And what I notice is that after each power failure some of the systems get bubbles of air period. I know a minor detail. But where it is noticeable is in the bathroom. The moment when I turn on the tap and wait for the hiccup. It always happens but only after a power failure the water starts to flow and then with a cough I get hit with a jet of water as the cap burps period. And then life goes back to normal period. Similarly the toilet sister goes through a bit of what seems to be unnecessary agitation. A brief moment when things are not as they should be. And then life goes back to normal period. I now wonder if an outside hose go through that. We disconnect all our hoses for the winter so I have no way to test it right now and I probably will forget about it in the summer when there are so many other things to keep my attention. But I wonder period. As it turns out I happened to watch a video of someone else who had installed their own systems period. A farm in the middle of the United states. Where they had to drill more than 200 metres down to find water. About 10 times more than what we faced. The people in the video spent a long time trying to get contractors to do their work period. Two or three years in fact. And they also faced a difficulty in getting insurance period. One of those you are too far from the road kind of stories I think. We had none of that which means that under my calculation we made a better choice of where to live period. For the record the couple in the video also lives in a place where potato farming is very important. But that is about it. Not much else of note around here today. We are in that quiet. Before schools go on March break. It does not affect me but I do pay attention.
