When your furnace takes a dump and it's single digit temperatures outside!
NOT a fun way to start the day for sure. All started on Saturday when T kept accusing me of turning down the furnace cause it was 68 in the house. Now, I know I have been getting hot flashes, but seriously, I never turned down the thermostat.
Woke up on Sunday morning and it 60 in the house. No WAY was I taking the blame for that one! Yeppers, the furnace took a nose dive.
We are lucky enough to have a good friend who comes over and services the furnaces/air conditioners at the three houses. He came over yesterday - in the middle of deer hunting (what a guy!) - and confirmed our worst suspicions.
The good thing is we have a little electric heater that throws off a lot of heat, plus he brought one of his over for us to use.
The bad news is the parts for the furnace won't be available until next week. Yikes!
I guess it could always be worse though - like -20 degrees outside with a 40 mph wind.
Needless to say, I wasn't running around the house in my skivvies this morning! Ha!

That is a recurring nightmare of mine. At least it wasn't in the middle of a blizzard! Will you be around this weekend? We will be in town Friday through Sunday.
Sorry sweetie - headed to Sioux Falls for certification (unless it gets cancelled - again). I wanted to be here for you and your mom to say a final "goodbye" to your dad. You'll be in my thoughts though, and always in my heart.
