Showing posts with the label furnace

Snow!?! Really!?!

The guys have been in the basement banging away installing the new furnace all day. We're anxious to feel the warm air and pull off some layers. We're upstairs trying to keep warm and watching the first snow storm of the year ... in October. Really?! And tree limbs are coming down all over the house! You hear a crack and a whoosh -- snow and limbs come crashing down. Crazy weather day. When will the heat come on?!

Freeeeeezing

This morning is definitely the coldest morning in the house since the furnace was disconnected. (For our safety.) There's frost on the pumpkins and we could see our breath when we dropped Leah off at Kindergarten.  Low 50s are forecasted for the day. The thermostat in the dining room is reading 61 degrees -- and we've got a space heater turned on in here! The water coming out of the faucets is ice-cold. It almost hurts my hands. And I've got three layers on to keep warm. And here's what the 3-year-old decides to wear around the house ... ... and I had to beg her to put on the sweatpants. Minutes earlier she was naked.  Sigh.
