conulyI ordered a free lead test from the city because, hey, it's free. I don't think we're at any risk of lead (I'm sure we would've noticed something awry in the past 20+ years) but it never hurts to be sure, especially when it's free, and that's about my thought process here.
But I tell my mother and I get "What makes you think we have lead???" and I tell my sister and she goes "Why do you want to do this!?" and sheesh.
Anyway, now our water is off for six hours so I can do this properly. Better get to sleep! Gotta be up early - I wanted to minimize the inconvenience for everybody, especially in this heat.
