I hired a local fixit-guy-plumber today. He fixed my two leaks by replacing the washers inside the tub unit and the valve in the toilet. Counting parts and labor, it cost me $50.00. Not too bad considering what a typical plumber charges nowadays.

I called around to all the local senior centers to ask if there was anyplace a senior could get a hot shower once a week. The response was an overwhelming NO. *sigh*

I do not know about way out West but here in the heart of it all we have senior centers and we have adult day care. Adult day care provides supervised activities. nutritional support (lunch), and hygiene assistance. While typically they charge for the shower some of them have funds to cover so many hours of care. If there is a truck stop nearby you could pretend to be a trucker and stop in for a shower. Another waterless option are a disposeable product saturated with water and no rinse soap. The towels can be heated in the microwave for a warm bath or at room temperature. We would use these on patients who were not able to shower even with assistance. They are not as good as a shower but they will clean with out water and make you feel a little fresher. They have towels for washing, towels for peri-care and even caps to shampoo your hair.

You might also want to contact a local church that helps people in times of need. They may have resources to help you with a shower. Remember if they do not you can threaten to stay there all day.

Over a week without water now, but I'm surviving :) I hit my next door neighbor up for two buckets a day to flush with.

I just returned from my neighbor's house with a bucket of water (40 pounds worth), and I'm worn out. I''m breathing heavy, my heart is racing, etc. Damn, I must be getting old - LOL
