Baby, It's Cold Outside!


Okay, it's not below zero, the photo is from last week. I have a call in to Brian the Furnace Guy and I hope he gets back to me soon! For the second time this winter the furnace is on the fritz! The last frustrating furnace fiasco cost $140!! And the horrible, loud rattling when the heat kicked in this morning sounded expensive. Ah, the joys of being a homeowner in South Dakota in January! Until the furnace is back on line I have sweaters, blankets, fat fuzzy socks, hot water and a large bathtub and two cuddly cats. Maybe I should bake something. What a great rationalization to prolong the Christmas pudge that has set in! Crank up the oven and bake because the furnace isn't working! Happy 2009 to all of you and I hope you're keeping warm.

  1. We're good unless we drop below 40 degrees. The upstairs temp is 54 this morning and the basement should be a little warmer. With any luck Brian the Furnace Guy will show up today.
