Getting A Head Start On Weekend Chores

I thought I was really organized today. I put my 5 gallon water jug in my truck this morning so that I could get that little chore out of the way after work. I got off work early and drove over to the water machine, filled up my jug and headed home. Stopped to check the mail and the water jug was fine. Went up my bumpy dirt/rock road and parked in my driveway. Stepped out and heard water. Hmm...that isn't good. Looked in the back of the truck and my water jug had tipped, the cap was off and most of the water was draining out of the truck bed. Darn.

I still have, maybe, 20 cents worth of water? Oh well. Guess I'll have to repeat that chore tomorrow with the addition of a milk crate and some bungees. For now I will hang out with the cat and puppies and think about my lovely 3 days off. Yea!

Bummer. The three day weekend should more than make up for it though. How are your rainwater tanks doing?

Bummer indeed. I did get a little rain yesterday and rain is in the forecast all weekend. The tanks are 3/4 full. A little less than normal but I appreciate all free water.

oh dang it...Remind me of how I tried to carry four one gallon jugs of water in a box and half dropped and spilled allover my garage floor
