Water, water, back in the tank!

 So after a couple of days creatively dealing with very little water, Husband bought a new pump. We were so incredibly fortunate that we have a fire tank, which we fill with fresh water, so it was no problem for house use. But gravity was... Well, it got it there, but it wouldn't exactly knock you down. It was enough for basic needs, so I washed dishes, that sort of thing. 

Now that we have the regular water back, Husband refilled the fire tank, I watered my garden. (The mulch kept everything fine for the couple days I couldn't water, I had plans, if it was a long outage, of some water I had as thermal mass in my green house, and a rain barrel would be called into action.)

Now I just need the 5 gallon buckets filled with water out of the bathtub, and maybe I can clean up the tub, and me!

What a relief it is to have running water back again.
