no water......

no water......
We still have no water coming in from the public line. They have been working for two days now trying to get everything put back together. We are saving one tank of the public line water to filter through machines that we have here to have drinking water for the kids and to have water to make baby bottles. So I hired someone to carry buckets of water in from the river. It is still rather dirty from the last rain. If you asked me how it feels after taking a bath in the water....my answer would be clean...but itchy.

But it does settle some after it sits for a while. I think we filled them both up 6 times today! That is a lot of water. A few years ago we were without water for over a month. Two or three days is nothing. Hopefully we will be back to normal tomorrow.

I was blessed with everything that I put on my last minute needs list. YEAH! Some items came in on the semi-container. Someone in Indy purchased a DVD/VHS player and a NEW TV! We are all so excited about it. One of the first movies I put in was Bengi. Some of the kids were scared and ran and hid. They had never seen anything like this before(the TV). But most of them LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. It is next to impossible to find kids tapes in Creole. So all are in english. IF you would like to help out hang on to any old tapes your kids have out grown. We will put them on the next container!
