I cannot miss a day or something awful happens. It looks like I have a big responsibility to check on you guys every day. I have never heard of a lift pump. I have a sump pump in my basement but I don't think that's the same thing? So glad you were able to get it fixed fairly quickly. <br />So glad to hear about Far Guy's sister doing well. I've been praying for her and you guys too. www.self-sufficientsam.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065860466566055543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-8025865199932995462020-07-20T07:06:17.807-05:002020-07-20T07:06:17.807-05:00Heck, I'm glad you were able to find a plumber...Heck, I'm glad you were able to find a plumber period! thecrazysheepladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10835269631172344336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-11004939331709716102020-07-20T00:35:28.839-05:002020-07-20T00:35:28.839-05:00Never, ever ask for excitement!

Especially in the summertime.<br />I'm really glad to hear that Far Guy's sister had a successful surgery and is doing well. It sounds like you had a good visit with family. How we would love to see family but it will have to wait awhile. Two more people at Dennis's work are awaiting test results. Both were in the same meeting with the person who tested positive.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-89713055494461489822020-07-19T23:19:24.819-05:002020-07-19T23:19:24.819-05:00After all that excitement, I hope you did get to d...After all that excitement, I hope you did get to do some Fun Stuff over the weekend :)At Home In New Zealandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12835971617944752730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-58575329919581544952020-07-19T20:58:18.035-05:002020-07-19T20:58:18.035-05:00Oh my... not exactly the excitement you were looki...Oh my... not exactly the excitement you were looking for was it?

We probably all appreciate those visits more than usual these days.
