A Young Water Carrier
Guido Bach
This is how I spend my days, even if I’m neither young nor so picturesque as this young lady.
Life has a tendency to send all those small nettlesome events your way, at the same time. So while I was struggling to get rid of a virus in my computer the electric pump in our well broke down. That happened Tuesday afternoon, just when I craved my afternoon tea. I’m glad we have plenty of snow right outside the door — it is easier to bring in snow for flushing the toilets and washing the dishes, than carrying buckets with tap water from my studio — that water I save for drinking and cooking.
Although I’ve managed to get rid of the virus, it did mess up some of the computers functions. I’m waiting for a friend to help me with that, until that is fixed I won’t use the computer a lot. It’s simply no fun to try to outwit a stubborn computer.
The good news is that my mother is doing fine, she’ll need some minor surgery, that’s all.
It is good to see you back and to hear that your mother is doing well. I hope you have running water and a fully-functioning computer very soon.

Maureen,
SvaraRaderaI haven't been here a lot, but hope to get more time when I don't have to fetch and melt snow seveal times every day.
