Lou, I didn't realize your system produced that much water.
It does, if your water pressure is around 80PSI. My water system is set for the pump to come on if the pressure drops below 30 on psi and go off above 50psi, so I estimate the RO system produces 5 to 8 gallons of water at the 30/50 psi, and it too is one drop at a time. The drops come faster than the distilling method, but still to slow to fill a glass. That is why there is a 3 gallon tank as part of the system.

When something is rated at a number, that is in the testing mode, with things being stretched to it’s limits. I would estimate the water reserve tan to hold 1.5 to 2 gallons at normal pressure. I could put a bigger reserve tank in another location but running out of drinking/cooking water only happens if I have the water off on that branch line for several hours, maybe once every year or two.

How come you can't go to the C more often than once a month?
C sets the schedule. C is doing this voluntary as his calling of the church / God. He has lots of other people he works with. Some already filed D papers. Some owe so much $$$$ they can't see daylight. Some make big $$$$$$ but don't have anything to show for it but an over stock of stuff. Maybe he thinks we don't have that big of a problem.

Maybe I didn’t open up to him enough, be honest about all of the frustrations I have been having . I did say things have been a problem for me and BB for several years.

Originally, I inquired about two M/R programs the church promoted through it‘s “small group“ growth program. One “small group” was for couples about to or just experiencing “empty nest” events” (40ish couples) and another “small group” program was for 50/60ish couples planning to retire in a few years. I explained my concerns to a church department leader/organizer and he said I/BB should the MC person.

Why am I not taking a more active role in this MC process? It is because church attendance was BB’s idea so I thought she would listen to and agree to do their program, even though it was me who made all of the contacts.

With past experiences, once I was more enthustic about something than she was, BB lost interest, the more I want something, the more BB resisted. I am trying to get as much mileage out of BB wanting to attend this particular church and her saying how much she likes going there.

As far as traditional MC,(female C that was a women’s issues expert) we went for several months in the early 1990’s (BB learninig about co-dependency years) and BB went through the motions, made some changes but didn’t buy in to the program. She seems to have bought in to what she knows about the church does and the programs it offers.

So, in our second session, BB listed what she wanted to do to make the R better. I know she wants to make the R better but I also see it is difficult to not keep doing some of the old habits and very difficult for her to be less picky and difficult for her to not think she gets the short end of the deal.
