Water issues

To "combat" the e-coli found in county drinking water... they have added high amounts of fluoride
now water leaves a nasty "after-taste" ... so bottled water (an added cost) to even make coffee...
     

More Water Troubles

                
                     Now our  foul drinking water has tested positive for Toxic E. Coli ...
              
                                       So All schools in this county have been closed....

Water Bill..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                      My Sister tried to see that we did Not see this one....
                            680 gallons use ... over $100.00 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                                         water and sewer Only.... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More Water Issues...

                               Lead this  time..,. our Town's drinking water...
                                     Are we to become another Flint, Michigan ...???
the notice (received in the mail) recommends finding another source (recommending Bottled Water... We cannot afford that !!)... so (if used) water must be allowed to run for half a minute before using...
                 
                         and coffee (made from this water) is about the Only thing we ever drink...

Just Sitting Here... Sipping Toxic Coffee...

           
As i had sat down to have a fresh cup of coffee... after a bit of my cup... get Phone call informing me that the town water May be "Toxic"... they will be testing this week and to "Avoid use for Consumption" Safe for other uses... the Water (of this Town) is All I have to drink (cannot afford other) So, Coffee is about the Only thing we consume...
          

was About to Make a Pot of Coffee...

                  ... but ( by the look of the water) the town has added More "chemicals"...
                So will have to allow the pot of water to set for a bit till it "clears up"...
found that my bread had fallen into the floor so will have to wait till later today to eat... ( my bread was ruined)... will microwave that small pizza in the freezer this evening (not oven bake it so I can eat it ... hard "crunchy crust would hurt my mouth too much...

Water Woes.....

Our town water supply is still listed as "unsafe".... (due to a rupture in the main line a bit over a week ago .... Water smells bad....(we played in stagnate creeks as a kid and the water did not smell as bad)

How our water looked back in March... not just "air bubbles"....

Back in the first of March , my Town was to add chlorine and other chemicals..... (They do the extra chemicals every few years.... then April Anson County (Where we now get our water supply) did their Extra Chlorine (they do so every few years....) by the end of April the town decided to "flush" the water lines.... (and we are are at the end of the "flush area", so, all contaminates are sent to my end of the area....)... So water was bad for last month as well...
... and still charged over $150.oo each month for service (only used 402 gallons one month and still had to pay the same amount....)
              
So my Dad and Step-Mother have been bringing me some well water to use for making Coffee...

Now They Are Really Messing With Me......

                   
The Town said that (through-out) this month of March that they will be adding Chlorine and other "Chemicals" to the town's water supply....

This is after the jar of water had sat for three minutes ... only a portion of the bottom had begun to "clear"... This is , and always has been all that we consume ... this many chemicals at one time cannot be very "good" for my health....
                                         Just ran a pot of water to use to make Coffee....
                            "White"..... Looked white and as "clear" as "Milk"... WTF??????
                                             And I am supposed to "drink" this ....?????
                       I will ask if someone can get me a few gallons of water to use for drinking...

Just Over 20 Views in the Last Two Hours.....

                                                      Water troubles for now.....
           Sorry folks we have been trying to restore "running Water" to my home....
So, been a "bit busy"..... and after "Everything".... Still No Water... My Step-Mother bought Stacey some bottled water and a couple of gallons more.... as well as a good bit of "food-stuffs"....
... well at least we can now eat something other than peanut butter sandwiches for a while....

Never A Dull Moment....

Due to these very cold temps....  the hose to the washing machine Burst , (within the last few hours)
                                     ... Water spraying Everywhere.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the ceiling  is dripping water as well.... on the outside of my house water was pouring out (just above foundation)... Hell of a way to wake up after a bit over three hours of sleep...

                    Spent the last while trying to "Think" of "something" we could do about it.....
Finally found an old rusty pair of wire-cutters... went outside to the water-meter.. and was able to turn off the water to the house.... the rupture is below the "shut off valve" on that hose... ( and my Moron of a brother) did Not even bother to install a proper shut-off "knob" on that hose... I would have needed Pliers... ( All pairs of which Brother has taken over the last few years ...as he has Any tool that we had...)..... So for now (having changed to dry clothing...nothing else that Stacey can do.... Not a Plumber ....!!!! not something that we know how to do....
             
                          Having my first (much needed) cup of Coffee for the day...
See , Kiddies thins (even though they "seem" pretty BAD.... things can Always get worse......
Things to do for Now ... So , ...Later...
