Last night at 10:30 (Halfway through LOST!!!!!!!!!!), my septic pump alarm went off. For those not familiar with mound type septic systems, there's a holding tank after the main tank that has a pump in it. When the water level rises, the pump turns on and pumps the liquid up to the leach field. Well my pump stopped working last night. Fortunately the guy who installed the septic happened to be meeting my father today, so they're headed up there to try and straighten it out. The guy thinks that the float in the tank may be tangled.
Thanks to this little mishap, we haven't been able to use any water or flush the toliet since last night. Yay us.

I'm so glad our new place has public sewars! Thats one thing I would hate to have to deal with. That's why those septic guys make the big buck$.
And Kristin could not shower this morning ... although with all the freakin water we got, I could have taken some shampoo outside and got it done. :)
