Yesterday, there was a water interruption here caused by a busted pipe near outside the village that took them 7-8 hours to fix. Early this morning, the internet was unstable to the point that it was gone for an hour or so. Good thing when I wake up this morning, the internet is back and now stable. It is really hard to live a life without water, electricity, and internet.10 people like this

We can live without internet and electricity but can't go without water for very long.

@DaddyEvil The use of internet has increased in last 15-20 years , I remember when I was in school I didn't had a mobile or internet access

@sjvg1976 I agree... As long as there is electricity, we have lots of videos and movies. As long as there is water, I can still make good things to eat. I don't NEED the internet.

You don't NEED electricity, either. You have the sun to light things up... You just need water to drink.

@DaddyEvil we need electricity for water because the level of the water has gone down here and need to pump the water out to the surface.

Not fun at all.
Having no water is summer is awful. We've had water interruptions before but they didn't last more than 5 hours. Glad you woke up with good internet though!

That sounds like a nightmare. I'm glad you got it all back.
