Never put off till tomorrow...

"Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today..."

This is so true here, but I still find myself doing that very thing.

Two days ago I did quite a lot of cooking and decided to finish all the dishes the next day. The power had gone off and I don't like to wash dishes by candle light. Yesterday morning, there was no water...ok so I will leave the dishes until the water comes back on. Today...2 days later there is still no water.

So....this morning I am washing dishes "camping style". It takes me 6 liters of water, 1/2 to wash, 1/2 to rinse, to do all of my dishes. I have water stored in 2 liter bottles, and heat it on the stove. It takes a lot longer to wash dishes this way...why did I not just do them 2 days ago?

Oh, by the way....I use the left over dish water to flush the toilet...no water is wasted. I hope the water is back on in another day or so...washing my hair "camping style" is not as much fun.
