Slacking...

I have been slacking on my blog...one reason is the tax roll at work is due on friday and we are busting our butts to get this done...another is they have blocked blogspot from our computers at work...so now I can't take a break and write or look up any. SO SAD!
Recently we have had our water line break...Andy went to turn on the water for our sprinklers and I guess he is HEMAN because he broke the pipe! Water came gushing out and we had to call Heber City Emergency water line for help. That was a Sunday night...so we were without water starting Sunday night...Monday Andrew and I stayed home to dig it up...yep we dug a whole that was about 4 ft by 4 ft...lots of work but it was fun to work together. We capped off the water line because we have to connect to secondary anyways...we waited 4 hours and tried to turn it back on but not water was coming out...then here it came...drizzling. Our pressure was gone...so we called Heber City water again and they came by and said sounds like you have pebbles and rocks in your line. You will have to call a plumber. So Tuesday rolled around without water and we finally got Roto Rooter there to help...they were dumb. We told them that we thought there were rocks in the line and it just needed cleaned out...but they were insisting that there was no pressure at all. So after they told us the options of digging up our main line and it costing oodles of money they checked the valve in our basement and sure enough there was dirt and rocks in our line...So we had running dirty water in our house...but we had water and that was SUPER!!! It all got cleaned out within an hour and we were happy campers!
