    A lot of people don't have running water in their house, if they have a house.

    You are 14? So guess your parent’s water is being shut off.

    Do you have containers to fill ahead, even the tub? At least it will give you some until it is sorted out.

    Any chance of a neighbour allowing you to use some water from their place, only suggesting that as it is rather heavy to lug too far.

    Good luck, hope it is short term.

    your folks need to pay the water bill. :mad:

    when you need to bathe. use the school showers, get a gym membership, go to the ymca/ywca, bathe in a creek or lake etc.

    shit in the plastic bags you get at supermarkets, and put them out for grabage pick up.
    get an 8 quart stock pot with a lid to use as a chamber pot.

    if you live by a body of water, get a wagon and haul water home.

    oh, one word of warning never, ever, go outside and use rain to bathe with during a thunderstorm! i know of one woman, when i lived in the backwoods of northern minnesota, whom did this, and she got struck by lighting! :eek:

    i hope, i have given you a few ideals to help you out.
    good luck. i'm pulling for you! :D

    now, go give your parents a kick in their asses for not paying the water bill! :mad:

    Don't fret about that as I am sure at my age I would of been less coherent than you were if the situation was reversed. :)

    I was just relieved that there was a backup plan for you and your family. Life sucks sometimes, even more so when you do not have any control over what happens.

    I hope that all gets back to normal for you soon.

    Take care
    Heat
