Holy Heat


We have a heater man now. Or should I say 3? We hired a local heat and air conditioning installation man and had our friend, Sy, join Dustin in getting the ducts in a row. Nuck. Dustin climbed in the attic to cut holes while Sy collected the shrapnel that fell from the ceiling on the main floor. The contractor made the plans, brought the bits and pieces, and put that together. We are still waiting for the unit to arrive later this week but we are so relived to have this ball rolling. It's been a looooong winter of wood fires (thankfully supplied for free from The Allen's and my dad) but the ash and dust that was created was alarming. We were wiping ALL of the surfaces in our house down 2-3 times a week. Plus, the amount of work that goes into making and maintaining a fire every day gets boring real fast. All of the hard work that these guys are putting in will make our home so much clearer and efficient in just 2 short weeks! Ta-da! Easy for me to say. I was in charge of mudding the baby room wall joints. It's true what they say about never doing a bad job well. Dustin has me in charge of mudding the rest of the house when it comes to each room.
