So.

Just 27 days after the water main burst out the front of our home - the water main has burst out the front of our home. I am so over it I could scream.

Screaming won't help though.

This time Sean & I got straight out there with a shovel & dug a channel & built a mini dam & diverted the water away from our house. We did this in our pyjamas, which may have been amusing if it wasn't so stressful. We didn't get the chance to do that last time, and our experience of how long the Water Corp's urgent response team can take to arrive (they're ridiculously understaffed like all large Corporations) meant that we knew we had to save our own home from further damage. The shop is closed today as I have to stay here while the excavator rips up the very recently laid turf & digs another massive bloody hole & re-fixes what was allegedly fixed less than a month ago. Worse things happen at sea & I am trying to remain in good humour this time as stressing out is very bad for your health & helps noone really.

We'll return to normal hours after Melbourne Cup Day-so open as usual from Wednesday 3rd of November!

November already!

Mad.
