Annoyed

I am still battling weird water. It was clear for me to take a shower, then when I started it back up for my son it was brown again. DH and I figured we could shower in it but not the kids. So we packed up out stuff and went to one of my neighbors house. I have done one load of laundry here today - it is so mucky, yuck! So that's why I did it with bleach. The other two loads I took to two different places. What a pain in the butt!
I did a load of dishes in the machine thinking it would use bleach and then heat to kill anything I can't get by hand. The mugs and most of the things along the top rack are black spotted. So I am rerunning them through without anything on the bottom rack.
Wouldn't have thought this water thing would consume so many days.

The well company is coming up tomorrow (*cough) with the bill and to see about why it doesn't smell like chlorine yet. It was supposed to smell like chlorine the day the well pump and stuff was done. They had treated it, as is by law, and I was supposed to run everything - hose and all until it smelled like bleach then I was supposed to let everything in the house sit and stay overnight to kill anything that could be lurking in the pipes/appliances. I let it run Saturday for hours with no change.....

Keep your fingercrossed for us please!

I hope things come clean and clear soon!

I'm crossing them! (It kind of makes it difficult to type, I'm used to doing it with all ten fingers intact...)
Time for "Dragon of Water" perhaps? ;)

I like Anne's suggestion. :) I'll be hoping for everything to work out soon for you!

Maybe I need to buy it and get going on it then- then get the rest to protect the rest of the house!
