Wow. The prospect of having three meals a day catered for
fills me with so much emotion. Mainly delight. Not because I don’t like
cooking. I think we all know I love it! But I hate having to decide what to eat
three times a day. (And that’s not even counting snacks!) Sure breakfast is a
no-brainer because I will eat porridge whenever I can, but the rest of the meals…
ugh. Planning them is the worst(/best)! I’m personally looking really forward
to a holiday next month that will start in Queensland but mainly take place in
the mid-north coast of NSW and while looking for hotels for the QLD I decided I
am totally going to add the overpriced breakfast to my room because that seems
like such a wonderful luxury. And I won’t have to think about that one meal for
a whole TWO days! Oh god, I can’t wait!
But enough about breakfast, what about water pressure?! This
is one of the most important things that you face on a daily basis. And if you
are at home with satisfying water pressure then there is no problem but when
you are taken out of that comfort zone…disaster. Or rather…unpleasantness!
We have been trying to fix up our bathroom which has many
nice new features but also has the scuzzy shower head and taps left over from
the old bathroom. These are fine, just old and scuzzy and we think about
changing them all the time but are in fear of losing our excellent water
pressure. We tried out a new shower head a little while ago but the water
pressure was so unsatisfying, like a cold limp handshake, we had to go back to ‘Ol
Scuzz after one shower.
As you may know LB’s family own a beach house and even
though that whole place has been old and scuzzy for a long time I can’t recommend
finding a boyfriend with a beach house highly enough. The place has been having
some renovations lately, the bathroom was the first to go, now the kitchen is
underway. Although these spaces are much more shiny and comfortable now, the
water pressure has truly gone to shit. Before leaving for the beach this past
Saturday I had a shower and LB remarked “I’m not going to have one down there
so I guess I’ll have one now too.” Truly, this is our new life. So woeful is
the shower power down there we will avoid is at all costs. It takes about 30
seconds to fill a glass with water, the kitchen sink pressure is so low. Still
I won’t complain (anymore). I mean the beach house privilege is a pretty good
one. I should just suck up the new pressure.
New shower heads are fitted with water saving devices which reduce water pressure. But I'm told they can be removed.
