Reset Forty-Nine, Day Two Hundred Forty
Jan. 21st, 2024 03:11 amA leak in the hot water line of the apartment next to mine has forced a shutoff of the hot water until some time Monday, which is when they will be able to dig up the floor and fix the pipe. I hope. I'm going to run out of clean dishes, or I'll have to boil water on the stove and use that to wash them. The digging will probably be noisy, and take place when I want to be sleeping. And I'd really like a shower. It's going to be an unpleasant few days. I hope there will be no delays. But the water pressure in the hot line has been inconveniently low for some time now, and it will be nice to have that fixed.
It rained off and on all day Saturday, and is expected to continue today and Monday, then we get a day off and rain returns on Wednesday. It's still not getting very cold around here, with nocturnal lows mostly in the high forties, and none in the thirties. Maybe I won't get any triple-digit utility bills this winter after all. A week from today they are actually predicting a high of 68, which is almost unheard of for a north valley January day. It just goes to show that even an apocalypse has its pleasant moments.
Speaking of pleasant moments, my neck was considerably less painful Saturday, and at times didn't even hurt at all. My sleep hours were odd but effective, and dinner was a single-serving vegetable lasagna, one of my favorites. On the whole a decent day, even without hot water. I'm going to do my best to make Sunday pleasant, as Monday with its jackhammer on the far side of my bedroom wall is apt to be a total nightmare. Two pleasant days out of three is acceptable. I just hope the water line project doesn't spill over into Tuesday.
