Back In The Heat Of Things

 

First , I would like to thank all of you for your kind and warm comments whilst our furnace was on the blink. We had a guy Brian from Papa’s work who does their heating a cooling systems come to the house and find what the problem was. We need a new valve on the old clunker , so he has that on order . He did his magic for now and the furnace is working. Papa also relocated the thermos stat re wired it and that seems to help as well , where it was it wasn't getting a proper reading and now it does. So we will keep our fingers and toes crossed that the furnace will keep on keeping on whilst we wait for the part !

                    Thank goodness for the wood stove that's all I have to say !

                          Until next time, hope you all have a wonderful day!

    Oh Yes....thank goodness for woodburners! Bad snpwstorm last week knocked out our power for 2 days, but with the woodburner we were toasty warm and even put a pot a soup on top!

    Yes, we have counted on our woodburner during power outages. Never had the furnace go out though. We're lucky we have a family member in the business!
    Happy Birthday to Papa's grandma! How wonderful!

    Love your wood burning stove. We would love one. But it will have to wait for a while. Happy Birthday to Ken's Grandmother.

    I hope that new valve does the trick for you and keeps the furnace running for another winter!

    I just love your wood stove... but, you already know that!

    I hope you had a great visit with the family!
