Sorry Tom has to dig but at least he knows what to do. We don't know a thing about septic tanks! Fingers and paws crossed things will sort themselves out for you.

Months probably b/c it is such hard work for him digging by hand in red clay that is so thick and heavy!! Tom is not as old as I but he is really too old for this job but he feels he has to b/c we don't have the money to have someone else to fix it. We are not suffering not being able to flush or shower ect b/c Tom dug first a place for the water to go. So everything in the house is working like there is no problem. Thank you Lord!!! I have had a septic tank in every house I have ever lived in. animal lover, quilt loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601858320913048863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6756509918716250722.post-51783858686382653522012-10-08T19:04:59.251-04:002012-10-08T19:04:59.251-04:00I am having trouble posting so didn't get to f...I am having trouble posting so didn't get to finish that post.

About 1o years ago we had to have the pipe replaced from the house to the first tank. This septic tank is 40 years old and the only thing we ever had to do for it was the new pipe. So now when there is NO MONEY we have to replace the pipes that go from tank to the second tank and the pipes that go out in the drain field. animal lover, quilt loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601858320913048863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6756509918716250722.post-14130290158048944662012-10-08T12:47:39.661-04:002012-10-08T12:47:39.661-04:00Thank you so much for your prayers they are so nee...Thank you so much for your prayers they are so needed, b/c it is one thing right after another!!!animal lover, quilt loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601858320913048863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6756509918716250722.post-14334325738368033382012-10-08T11:44:29.012-04:002012-10-08T11:44:29.012-04:00Fern, I'm so sorry to hear that - we just had ...Fern, I'm so sorry to hear that - we just had to our our tank pumped - I don't know how much longer it will last as it is an old hand dug tank - our house is 114 years old.<br /><br />Blessings dear friend,<br />LynnRocky Creek Scotties and Rocky Creek Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358992951185911832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6756509918716250722.post-54040039893038454352012-10-08T11:10:55.807-04:002012-10-08T11:10:55.807-04:00In Bambi's younger days she would have been ha...In Bambi's younger days she would have been happy to help dig.
