We´ll have a water cut tomorrow.

Here it is either too dry or too wet. Now it has rained more than too much. The river´s waters have turned into mud so we might have a shortage of drinking water. But I suppose there are several people who won´t even bother to turn off their automatic system for watering lawns. So we will have a water cut for some hours. It will start after lunch so it will be to save the extra water that some people use. But I had a brilliant idea And cooked just now. So tomorrow I will only have to heat the food which will also be better as I won´t get between Mario and his work. I cooked rice and bought some chicken thighs and mushrooms. So I have chicken thighs in mushroom sauce. Both can be heated easily. I also bought drinking water and tomorrow morning I´ll ask Mario to go to the second floor to half fill the tub there for toilette cleaning. I only know when the water cut will start but I don´t know when it will end. Good night now, friends. See you.

We had the same problem last winter, no rain from months. We had to wait until last May to get rain. Get some water to use before they cut.

I bought bottled warer (I have 9 liters). And when Mario arrives, I´ll ask him to go to the second floor and fill the tub. With half of it it will be more than enough.

@LadyDuck I hope that water problems will soon be on the past. I´m glad that now I have some wet paper towels with no aroma.

@marguicha This is what I used to do, fill the tub to have some water to wash my face and for the toilet.

That was good thinking... You and Mario will still be able to eat without interrupting his work. Hopefully, half a tub of water will be plenty for your cleaning needs until the water is restored. Have a good night.

I think so. I can soak the few dishes I will use and place them in the dishwasher until the water returns. I hardly ever use the dishwasher but now I will do it.

@marguicha We have a dishwasher but haven't used it in ten of fifteen years. I'm not sure it will still work.

It's good to plan ahead. We can live without a lot of things, but water is not one of those things.
