Busy cleaning up.
the city water is running but low pressure so we turned our deep well pump back on... and so we have enough water to do the cleaning up.
Lolo made this place in the days when city water was iffy (very low pressure, so usually you had to leave it on to drip into a bucket, and then put the water through a ceramic filter if you wanted to drink it... so he had a pump installed).
Kuya is at the farm trying to harvest and dry the flattened rice before it starts to rot/deteriorate. Hopefully it will dry out nicely but it might be poorer quality so we'll have to sell it to be used as white rice (low quality) instead of our organic brown rice brand.
Sigh.
The wash machine was used so much yesterday that the belt broke: we replaced it today.
The good news: The internet is back on.
The bad news: The wire to the modem in my room was broken when the roof section blew off. So I am linked via the office internets: Either Joy's Huawei or the PLDT via the upstairs office, both of which reach my room with low signal.
Lots of people asking for money. Sigh. And now a niece of the cook age 37 has renal failure and needs help to pay for dialysis. Sigh.
She should get a kidney transplant of course, but that's so expensive it's out of the question. Luckily the town does have "Free" dialysis for the poor, so the price is low for her.
