I live in the country, and (like all or most people who live in the country), we get out water from a well.
In the spring, we made the switch to geo-thermal power, which has been awesome. EXCEPT. Since we got the system installed, our water pressure has been low and the temperature almost unbearably high. At first, the water pressure wasn't noticeable and the temperature was had an easy fix - just wait a while for it to cool down. In the past few months, though, it's become problematic: the water pressure is so ridiculously low that sometimes I half expect it to come out in a dribble, and the temp....ugh. It never cools down. This makes showering horrible.
(Oh, did I mention? This only happens our bathrooms.)
I mentioned it to Mom, and it sounds like something that she's harangued my stepdad with. He told her that it would be our well drying up. Of course, we don't know because he's off, starting a million and one last minute projects that he probably won't finish before we have this open house on Saturday - projects which he could have done months ago!
*facepalm*
Also, I seemed to have pulled a muscle in my foot. It hurt last night, it's stiff today, and it's painful to put my weight on.
...
Aside from all of this, here! Have a fic rec. It made me happy as I read it:
