This is one of the craziest topics I have written about so far. I am just another mortal; therefore, I also have to live the service crisis in Venezuela.
The most deplorable issue in Barquisimeto is the lack of drinking water. Although in my house I do not suffer from blackouts like other people because I am close to a hospital, the water issue became a big concern.
It was in my imagination for months to install a 陆 HP pump, but I repeatedly postponed it; since the water was coming with a certain fluidity. In January, by chance, water became critically scarce, and I had to subsequently purchase this water pump.
The thing is that I had to make changes in the main pipe, buy the pump, elbows to install the pipe, glue and other things to be able to install it. The solution to the water problem was very easy: install a water pump, but I never thought it would be so expensive and take so many processes.
脡ste es uno de los temas m谩s locos que he escrito hasta ahora. Soy un mortal m谩s, por ende, tambi茅n me toca vivir la crisis de servicios en Venezuela.
El tema m谩s deplorable en Barquisimeto es la ausencia de agua potable. Aunque en mi casa no sufro de apagones como otras personas debido a que estoy cerca de un centro hospitalario, el tema del agua se volvi贸 una gran preocupaci贸n.
En mi imaginaci贸n estaba desde hace meses colocar una bomba de 陆 Hp, pero lo pospuse reiteradamente; ya que el agua estaba llegando con cierta fluidez. En enero por casualidad el agua comenz贸 a escasear de manera cr铆tica y tuve que comprar posteriormente esta bomba de agua.
El tema es que hubo que hacer cambios en la tuber铆a principal, comprar la bomba, codos para instalar la tuber铆a, pega y otras cosas para poder instalarla. La soluci贸n al inconveniente del agua era muy f谩cil: instalar una bomba de agua, pero nunca pens茅 que ser铆a tan caro y que llevar铆a tantos procesos.
As we were installing the pump, we noticed several inconveniences with the main piping; some walls had to be broken, and we even installed a separate electrical current from the main for the pump. It is quite an issue that takes you to the extreme and shocks you.
At this point in my life, I can't spend my thoughts on things that really wear me out. So the viable solution is to install the water pump and determine what difficulties the house has after installation.
At the moment, there are no water leaks in the internal pipeline, but there is a blockage. It will be necessary to install the aerial piping. When? I don't know; I will have to make a cost structure and evaluate the budget.
The total cost to install the pump was $160 USD, which is crazy. This considering the overhead, labor, the pump, and things that came out over and over again. Peace of mind and comfort cost money. Such is the life of an adult.
A medida que instal谩bamos la bomba notamos varios inconvenientes con la tuber铆a principal, se tuvieron que romper algunas paredes, instalar incluso una corriente el茅ctrica separada de la principal para la bomba. Todo un asunto que te lleva al extremo y te impresiona.
En 茅ste momento de mi vida no puedo dedicar pensamientos en cosas que realmente te agotan. Por eso, la soluci贸n viable es instalar la bomba de agua y determinar cu谩les son los problemas que posee la casa despu茅s de su instalaci贸n.
Por los momentos, no hay fugas de agua en la tuber铆a interna, pero s铆 existe obstrucci贸n. Tocar谩 instalar la tuber铆a a茅rea. 驴Cu谩ndo? No lo s茅, me tocar谩 hacer una estructura de costos, y evaluar el presupuesto.
La instalaci贸n de la bomba cost贸 en total 160 d贸lares estadounidenses, una locura. Esto considerando los gastos menores, mano de obra, la bomba y cosas que sal铆an una y otra vez. La tranquilidad y comodidad cuesta dinero. As铆 es la vida de un adulto.
The most illogical thing is that these are relatively small things, but they have a high economic value. Even though it is a small matter, it is destabilizing. That is, it causes a headache and keeps you restless.
These issues require quick action; being without drinking water is an ordeal. Many people go through this situation in Venezuela, and not everyone has the resources to be able to make this installation. I didn't even think it would be at this price. The truth is that my budget was more modest and tight.
Well-being requires action if we want to stay calm and do things the right way. The logical thing to do is to act consistently. Now that I have managed to install this pump, I am calmer, and I don't have to worry if there is no water or not. The reason is simple: the pess control turns on when the tank needs to be filled; of course, that happens evidently when there is water in the pipe.
Everything is easier right now; I don't have the same level of worry as a couple of weeks ago, and I can concentrate on the things I need to do. Everything is easier.
Lo m谩s il贸gico es que son cosas relativamente peque帽as, pero tienen un alto valor econ贸mico. A pesar de que es una cuesti贸n peque帽a, es desestabilizadora. Es decir, causa dolor de cabeza y te mantiene inquieto.
Estos temas procuran una r谩pida acci贸n, estar sin agua potable es un viacrucis. Muchas personas pasan por esta situaci贸n en Venezuela y no todos poseen los recursos para poder hacer esta instalaci贸n. Incluso, yo no pensaba que saldr铆a en 茅ste precio. La verdad es que mi presupuesto era m谩s modesto y ajustado.
El bienestar procura acci贸n, si queremos mantenernos en calma y hacer las cosas de manera acertada. Lo l贸gico es actuar de manera coherente, ahora que he logrado instalar esta bomba estoy m谩s tranquilo, no tengo que preocuparme si no hay agua o no. La raz贸n es simple, el pess control enciende cuando el tanque requiere llenarse, claro, eso ocurre evidentemente cuando hay agua en la tuber铆a.
Todo es m谩s f谩cil en estos momentos, no tengo el mismo nivel de preocupaci贸n que hace un par de semanas y puedo concentrarme en las cosas que debo hacer. Todo es m谩s sencillo.
