I LOVE my new job. Some have requested house pictures. I still haven't figured out how to write around the pictures. These are from last spring, before we even put the offer in on our house. I need to take more, and upload them. But that might not happen for a while. We're getting a new furnace this week, so we won't be as cold.
The story behind that, when our home inspector went through our house, he passed the main furnace, and said the second furnace, that is for the addition (which is pretty much our kitchen) didn't work, and would need repairs. So, earlier this month, I had a furnace company come out, because they were advertising furnace tune ups to make them run more efficiently for the winter, and help us save $$. However, when they were out, they said that our main furnace didn't really work after all, the heating element was cracked, and that can make carbon monoxide leak out. So, our home warranty people had to come out and inspect our furnace, and we requested they take a look at the second one as well, so that they could get any repair work needed on that one paid for by the warranty. They cleared us to get a brand new main furnace and we only have to pay $400, while furnaces cost up to $8,000, and merely cleaned the gas valve on the other, and got it up and running. So, I've had a warm kitchen, and freezing everything else, but they are coming on Thursday to give us a new furnace, YAY!
