On Friday night, instead of doing the dinner dishes right away, something on the television caught my eye and I sat down to watch it with my husband. Before long, it was time to go to bed, and when I walked into the kitchen to put my glass in the dishwasher, realized that a sink full of dirty dishes was still waiting for me. What made that even worse was that when I turned the faucet on to start washing them, nothing came out!
We live on property with a well, so we knew that we weren't "out of water." With flashlight in hand, my husband went to check on it, and discovered that the pump wasn't working. There wasn't anything he could do, so we decided to go sleep in our RV. We'd just returned from a trip and the fresh water tank was full, so we knew that at least we could use the bathroom and shower until we got the pump fixed.
