And There's More!!

So As usual, there's more.....click this link to hear This noise in the furnace . So I called our pals at Affordable Heating and Cooling. They installed this nice Lennox furnace for us back in 2018. 

I sent that video to the guy who was coming to fix it and he said it sounds like a bearing. I asked if he'd have parts on had to fix it and he said, it depends. He came and said it's your INDUCER. 

And $688 later our furnace is once again quiet and running smoothly. And I'm glad it is! We're expecting below zero wind chills today! Even the heat mats couldn't keep up with the snow we got!

I spent the morning with the snow blower on Wednesday. That's enough of that stuff I hope!!

And one last thing-I got a new chair mat for my rolling sewing chair. It's glass! My old acrylic mat was all cracked up and broken up so I splurged and got a fancy tempered glass mat. That's all for today....brrrr, I'm staying in today!

It's Springing

 

There are some signs of Spring going on now.  See the lonely tulip, and the violets too? 

The real sign of  spring though, is this....the automatic dog water dish is out! 

It's been a tough winter in the backyard, we've got dog holes that you could bury a body in!

It's been pretty dry now for a couple of weeks.

Next thing you know it will be time to mow:-(

SO I got  this little tiller to till up the dog holes!

It's just a little electric tiller. The reviews on line and videos say it will do the trick though.

I put it together-now to wait for a little bit of rain, probably Saturday. Then I'll post how it works out.

We had Affordable Heating & Cooling out to check the AC unit. As they have told us for the last two years, our unit uses the old, bad kind of gas, and can't be readily fixed if it breaks down. We've kind of had it on our "that'll be next" list. But for now it passed all the Maintenance checks.

And there's the burn pile-we need to have the backyard bonfire pretty soon, but it's too dry this weekend. Soon though!
