And yes, i know its the rainny season.
But even so, its been raining every single day.
Not that I mind, though. Garden and conuco looks great.
But...........
Water ( mains ) is dirty !!! And i mean really, really dirty.*
Open the tap, fill *mug, leave it out on the table, wife will drink it thinking it is weak coffee.
I kid you not.
It comes out cleaner, but not clean ( not that the mains water is*ever clean ), so lets say clearer.
Problem #1. How to wash clothes ? Especially white clothes. Dirty whites are stacking up
Problem #2. How to stop alguae from growing on the bottom of cement thingys ( like flower beds, etc....) ?
Of course they are all white so that doesnt help.
Wifey scrubs with bleach and*ace ( ? cheap soap powder ? ) and pi?on ( nice smelly thing used to wash floors and stuff ).
But then it rains ( pours really, thats not drizzle or even rain, its more like end of the world stuff ) and we have to start over again. ( yes,*we, cos the new cleaning lady she hired wasnt to my liking, so got rid of her......hence wifey excerts vengeance by getting me to help her ).
I proposed painting everything green to solve the problem . I thought it was a good idea. She didnt. She gets the last word. ( well I didnt argue too much, since it would be me painting the 15 tree beds and the 90 or so meters of flower beds, mind you ).
Problem #3. If you dont maintain the pool clean every single day, the alguaes creep out at night and smother one in his sleep.
And even when cleaned, the water still has a*murky look to it. I doubled everything, cloro, acid and soda . And tripled anti-alguae ( and got 2 diffrent brands to be on the safe side ).
There again no evaporation problem.
Thank God, cos I cant top it up with dirty mains water .
Any ideas ?
So how long will this weather last ?
