One of the joys of Juba -- I woke up this morning to find no water. This usually doesn't happen, but sometimes there is an oversight in the process and the team doesn't shower (at least we are all in this together!). We get our water delivered from the Nile or if we are lucky, get it piped in (I'm assuming also from the Nile) by the government. Then we treat it in tanks. We had water in the tanks, it just hadn't been chlorinated and therefore pumped to the tank accessed for our water use.
I'm writing this just to remind myself and all of us to appreciate the little things in life. I sometimes complain about cold showers, and I realised when I had no water, a cold shower would have been nice. This is the one day I was happy with myself for sleeping through my "exercise" alarm clock. I didn't get up to work out today which ended up being a a very strategic move. What can I say, even my laziness is strategic - imagine sitting in the office after a good work-out sweat. Nice.
At least the situation should be fixed now - and I look forward to my cold shower this evening.
