A Watched Pot Never Boils

I’ve demonstrated this all day long while boiling water in my kitchen so that my child could have something to eat out of a clean bottle.  Apparently I will have to continue to do this tomorrow.  I apologize to the people I’m having lunch with tomorrow as my child and I are both dirty and will stay that way until we can use the water out of our taps again or at least until tomorrow night at which point I will begin calling all the people I know in the Metro area outside of Dekalb County and begging to use their showers.

At least I learned on my honeymoon how to brush my teeth with bottled water.  This isn’t a skill I really thought about using again, but here we are.  I have never appreciated clean drinking water as much as I do right now while taking care of a child without being able to clean him properly.
