Hi Carol! Wow, 30 days of that? We only endured a half of a day really, 13 hours, of no water, but in the beginning, as I wrote, it was from the end part of January to sometime in March and that was really bad. Especially as we were new homeowners, had just been married a few months before, and neither of us had ever had to deal with house maintenance before.
One of the other things that also happened to our house at that same time, which I neglected to include in the story, was that all the electrical power to the 2nd floor level stopped working, and we had to get in an electrician to rewire the whole second floor. This house was a rat's nest of bad wiring and bad workmanship, so over the last almost 30 years we have had to redo just about everything, a little bit at a time.

I feel for you Bex! We get pump water from our well. When the hydro goes, the water goes! So we are without water frequently at the country house. We have a system, jugs of water just the right size for one flush of the toilette, so we can flush if it is necessary. We also keep lots of drinking water on hand, in jugs, for those frequent times when we have no water. For us, no water, no lights, but we still have heat!
