Lord the town is flushing out pipes and our water is shit brown. They gave no notice. I called and they told us to go out and get bottled water. In a pandemic. Like bottled water hadn’t been sold out for weeks.

Somehow this is my fault. I am very tired and cannot make coffee.

omg. wtf

I just.

It’s not on the town website or twitter. My sister and my dad aid just woke me up freaking out.

I went to bed at 6;30.

Omg what the actual fuck That’s ridiculous!

yeah fuck drinkable water right

Or like being able to wash your hands during a pandemic.

you could boil the water that is brown to clean it

can.... you? idk if that would remove particulates

boiling or using chemicals cleans water

It’s sediment. Would it work for that?

Nope not according to google.

no

the sediment itself isnt harmful but possible after effects of lead building in the pipes

sediment is a natural water cleaner but not good to build up in the water heater

I am sorry; I dont know what to say about the stupid idea to this now ><

no worries, bb! I appreciate the effort. mostly i'm just frustrated by like. if we'd had warning we could have stockpiled water in our tub and shit for hand washing but because we didn't, we couldn't.

understandable and exactly; they should have had

>: ( yes

i just almost automatically filled and chugged my water bottle. i did not. instead i slammed a la croix

Over 12 hours later and my water is still yellowish so hopefully we will be all good tomorrow.

hopefully
