02/23/2021 (#10 NO WATER)

God, what a saga we are living!

Seems to me that we may actually
understand some of the trials and
tribs our people of yesteryear went
through during their sojourn in this
130 year old cabin. So hope there
was joy as well!

Per a few requests to elaborate on
our own little foray into the darker
side of life . . . My amazing guy
was able to drill through the ice
once we rented an electric snake
yesterday afternoon. We have 
drainage; yayyyyyyy!!!

Today, he'll be taking up the jane
and floorboards to fix a broken 
intake pipe. Hopefully the last of
the frozen water in the well will
melt in today's 50 degree weather.
Just in time for snow tomorrow! 
We'll just have to wait and see. 

I find living in the past, as it were,
a most interesting experience. We
have an electric heater running 
under the cabin as well as a heat
light in the well. These are things
never thought of in our modern
world.

Here's me thinking I'd best don
my long dress, braid my hair and
put on my bonnet. Mustn't forget
to lace up my boots . . . 'tis a bit
deep around here!

alas im longing
so in love with yesteryear
needs me some modern
