πŸ’›Going silentπŸ’›

 πŸ’›

I wanted to, and did, post about the early September Wedding of our Granddaughter, before posting this.

 πŸ’› 

Life was still more smooth then.

πŸ’›

I am the full time care giver for my husband.  And have my own health issues.   Thankfully I have the advice and support of our two sons!!!!

πŸ’›

But I can no longer blog, as I always have.

    πŸ’› 

After my Dear Blogging Friends have been able to read this post,  I will "put my blog to sleep."

         πŸ’› 

Blogger does not make this easy.  The only way I know of, is to make it Private.  Which includes an off-putting message that the person trying to read my blog, is no longer allowed to do so.

               πŸ’› 

Obviously not the message I want to give!!!!!

                     πŸ’› 

But I am telling you here, the reason I have to put my blog to sleep, and thus, you will know.

                    πŸ’›

Words can not express, how delightful it has been, to be a member of "Pretty Blog Land," as I always called it.   Nor can I express how Grateful I am to all my Dear Readers, for our interaction.  

       πŸ’›

Love and Best Wishes to you all....

πŸ’•The one where K. and K. got marriedπŸ’•


 


Our Granddaughter wore the necklace, which my husband gave to me, to wear, on our wedding day, way back in 1958.



I may be prejudiced but, isn't she beautiful?
Her hair was like "out of Faerie Land"...
The way he looks at her....

With her beautiful Mom...
With her handsome Dad, our son.
And another with her Dad.
And we are all so happy!  They are both beautiful, handsome, and great people.

And....  The Bride and Groom...  With us.

🚰 Still without clean waer 🚰 UPDATE

 


We are still without clean water.   From the water main break of Sunday morning.   We still have to use bottled water, which one of our sons brought over, Sunday morning...  So that we don't have to boil water, to use it.


I am OC.  I probably wash my hands a *million* times a day, regularly.   During this water main break, we have to use Wet Wipes for any/all cleansing.  Yes, I'm glad I still have a stash of Wet Wipes, from my Covid-Stock-Up time.  But they are not the same as a good wash, with soap and water.   -sigh-  We can not shower, because don't want not-clean water to get in our eyes, nose, mouth, etc. 
 
  Let's face it.
We are a city of dirty people.
LOLLLLLL


Just texted a Grandson and he is in school!  I really  didn't think they would.


Please be conscious today, of every time you turn on a tap and clean water flows from it.  Give the faucet a little pat, and "tell it" that you will not take it for granted, any more.  😌


Think this experience will push me to keep some bottled water on hand.   Not a lot, but some..

🚰

I read an Instagram/blog of a lady who does prepare.   Not with dry food and and that *preppy* sort of stuff.  But growing their own food...  Vegetables and meat.  Preserving it, various ways.  Keeping a back up supply of water.   Heating with wood stove and cooking with wood stove.   Etc., etc., etc.  Their  goal is to be able to survive, in 1800 conditions.   And that is a lofty goal.   Good for them!

🚰

Few of us have the land area or even the *drive*  to attempt such.  We are the products of the age in which we live.  So we had better *keep good thoughts flowing,* for the good of our Water, Electricity, and etc. Systems.  πŸ˜‰

UPDATE

Boil Water Directive was removed about an hour after I posted this!!!!  Then we had to run all water taps, to clear any air buildup and any *crappy* water, left in pipes.

 

You have no idea how wonderful it is, to have clean running water again!!!!

 

Plus, the bottled spring water tasted awful!!!!  Our own water is so much more tasty.  πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹
