Yesterday went pretty smoothly.\u00a0 We were actually able to make it to each stop on our route, but there were three that didn’t have water.\u00a0 Two in Mallard Landing which was not surprising considering the water seems to be down there more than it is up, I think.<\/p>\n
Jacob’s grandfather, and my ex-father-in-law, who I mentioned in a previous post was extremely ill passed away in his sleep early Wednesday morning.\u00a0 The funeral will be in the Portland area on Wednesday, the 5th, so Jacob will be leaving early Tuesday morning and probably returning late Thursday night, or sometime Friday. So, there will be 3-4 days I will be on my own and do not expect to get a lot accomplished during that time but will give it my best shot.\u00a0 If I wouldn’t get 50 texts every morning, I could get an earlier start. I was originally planning on attending the funeral but will see if it is available on Zoom so I can still work that day even if at my desk for a while.<\/p>\n
We currently have about 35 start-ups to do in Meridian 83646, so that is where Jacob and I will concentrate tomorrow. With all the heads we have had to replace lately, it is doubtful we will make it through even half of what is left in Meridian, but we will tackle some more of the area on Friday after we install two hose bibs on a house in the 83703.\u00a0 The two hose bibs were scheduled quite some time ago when I figured we would be finished with start-ups by then.\u00a0 We are supposed to be digging up at least three sprinkler main & drains next week, also scheduled quite some time ago, but will have to put those off until the following week or later.\u00a0 That will also throw off our lawn aeration schedule as well unless we can find some much-needed help quickly.\u00a0 Still have some ads out, but no takers. The death of a family member is not what we want, but it is inevitable, and never at a good time no matter whether we are busy or not.<\/p>\n
We have a few backflow tests in Meridian to do today before we begin start-ups.\u00a0 Here is our route for today:<\/p>\n
