NATIONAL SMART SEPTIC WEEK - Ode to a Septic Business

Bless your heart, you've stuck with me all week reading about septic systems and liquid waste hauling.  You should be commended (or have your head examined...but let's stick with commended).  I will end this week of posts with a short little poem...my Ode to our Septic Business!  Enjoy!



 ODE to the SEPTIC BUSINESS
It’s that busy time of year when the country people start to call
Wanting us to pump their tank – their liquid waste to haul
We are happy to come and pump, and pump it yes we will
But septic-tank-pumping--liquid-waste-hauling isn’t our only skill

We offer maintenance programs to keep your system in check
We don’t want your laterals to ever be an icky, nasty wreck
We will install a riser lid and a tube up to the surface
Now you can mark your tank and have a way for us to come and service
We also pump out grease traps - if you own a restaurant or a diner
We install lagoons, for you to use, complete with septic tank and liner
Septic systems – we install those too, in case your mind was wondering
But Mother Nature can give us fits when she sends gray rainy clouds a thundering
We can conduct percolation tests to check your soil’s absorption
But please note now, it must be dry or the data will show distortion
Selling your place or moving away? We can do property transfer inspections
We’ll come and look and let you know if you need any septic-code-corrections

So check us out-  try our website if you have more inquiries or questions
Give us a call, we’d love to help and possibly offer up suggestions

Who knew you could learn so much from just an interesting word collection?
Gotta love a little septic poem detailing our business service selection

    Hello sister Jaime Kubik. I am a Pastor from Mumbai, India. I am glad to stop by your profile on the blogger and the blog post. It was good to go through your blog post on ODE To The Septic Business. I am also blessed and feel privileged and honoured to get connected with you as well as know you and about your husband's business and your interest in loving the Lord Jesus Christ and the Word of God. I love getting connected with the people of God around the globe to be encouraged, strengthened and praying for one another. I have been in the Pastoral ministry for last 39 yrs in this great city of Mumbai a city with a great contrast where richest of rich and the poorest of poor live. We reach out to the poorest of poor with the love of Christ to bring healing to the brokenhearted. We also encourage young and the adults from the west to come to Mumbai to work with us during their vacation time. We would love to have you come to Mumbai to work with us during their vacation time. We would love to have your young children in their late teens and above to come to MUMBAI WITH their friends to work with us during their vacation time. I am sure they will have a life changing experience. My email id is: dhwankhede(at)gmail(dot)com and my name is Diwakar Wankhede. Looking forward to hear from you very soon. God's richest blessings on you, your family and friends.

You are what you read? Really?

Do you agree with this statement?   “You are what you read.”   Prior to being a Pumper’s Wife I would have never really given this statement much thought…but now I can’t help but take it literally!!   You are what you read…if you read about fashion, you’re fashionable.   If you read about cooking, you’re a cook.   If you read about dogs you’re a…wait.   Let’s come back to this in a minute… When I taught science, I loved to read about the latest scientific discoveries…I still do.   I kinda think once a science teacher, always a science teacher…but I digress.     The age of the internet made reading these articles so easy.   As my students’ parents got to know me better, they would find great discoveries to share with me as well.   I especially liked reading anything relating to space or the oceans.   Though I am removed from the classroom now, I still have parents (and former students) who share articles they think I might ...

HITTING BLESSINGS "OUT OF THE PARK"

Based on what I have written about in recent posts, I am guessing you can probably figure out two things about our family and business.  One, we like baseball.  Two, our area has been getting an excessive amount of rain.  (After seeing some video of the flooding in Texas, I can’t complain – I feel so very badly for those folks! We haven’t had near that amount in terms of rain!  My prayers are going out to those people.  Here in Nebraska, we aren’t currently flooded, but we are plenty wet and don’t seem to be drying out any time soon according to the weather reports!)  I saw this on Facebook the other day and almost peed my pants from laughing! I keep telling Jason I feel like we need to start building our own ark….either that or take up rice farming, but I digress… The rain has kept us very busy and though our business doesn’t advertise 24 hour service, there have been many nights and weekends spent working to help people who might be experien...

WINTER TIME AND SEPTIC TANK PUMPING

Image
It's that time of year that our family loves -- cool crisp fall days, deer season, sweatshirts, campfires, Thanksgiving...bring on the pumpkin spice too! But winter is coming... So does that mean we can't pump septic systems?  Well, not really.  In fact, many people like to have their tanks pumped in the fall and winter months because we don't screw up their grass since most of it is dormant at this point.   Whenever we pump tanks -- no matter what time of year it is -- our issues are the same, gaining access.  If the tank is too far from a driveway or road and we have to drive in a field, yard, pasture, etc, we have to be careful of the weather.  In the spring and summer, we have to be careful of rain.  (Well, we had to be careful of rain any year prior to this year...still wondering if rain has just decided to bypass the state for good...)  In the winter months, we have to be careful of snow and ice.  There is also that issue that some tanks hav...
