Maybe my son-in-law needs to work for Blogger.<BR/><BR/>Here I go to try to post it again. Don't be surprised if it shows up twice later today.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1162674082745267192006-11-04T15:01:00.000-06:002006-11-04T15:01:00.000-06:00Trying this AGAIN!!

Blogger is against me today but I see my comment is now voided by the curent post...your heating is fixed. lol<BR/><BR/>Was just going to say I've had the heating on for the last couple of weeks on and off as the temperature has dropped considerably at night, but must admit when you switch it on for the first time after summer you almost expect it not to work.<BR/>Sandyto touch a unicornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823979594281577987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1162611502914391432006-11-03T21:38:00.000-06:002006-11-03T21:38:00.000-06:00Carmon, your woodstove gives you heat AND ambience...Carmon, your woodstove gives you heat AND ambience. It just occurred to me that I do have a fireplace, but it hasn't been used in so long I'd be afraid to try it without having it checked out first. It'd be a toss-up as to which repairman would get here first.<BR/><BR/>4th Sister, that's funny. If your farmhouse was old, it may have been draftier than Carmon's yurt.<BR/><BR/>Holly, thanks for the tips. My water heater is gas and functioning just fine, so I know the gas line to the house is OK. I think the thermostat's OK, too, because it was controlling the A/C last week with no problems. I'm told there's a separate gas valve at the heater unit itself (does that sound right?). Kim offered to go up into the attic and check it out for me, but it's cramped quarters up there. I'd prefer someone to do it who has a clue what they're looking for. <BR/><BR/>Sunflower, it's great to have Kim and her sister nearby for emergencies, but I sure do like sleeping in my own bed. I'm just guessing, but my money's on you having the final say about when the heat goes on.<BR/><BR/>Okay, it's 9:30 on most of my clocks and 10:30 on the one I still haven't changed. I'm gonna go by that one and crawl back in bed with my book. G'night all.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1162607462675968392006-11-03T20:31:00.000-06:002006-11-03T20:31:00.000-06:00Stay warm, Velvet!

Although if you start turning blue I'm sure Kim would take her dear mom in for a couple of days.<BR/><BR/>I like it toasty, my husband acts like a mean old NYC landlord and refuses to put the heat on before October 15th (that's the law in NYC.) Guess who wins that one, every year ;-)<BR/><BR/>You're doing great!

Funny, I had to replace my Mom's thermostat last time I was in B.R.... It's a pretty easy fix if you're handy with tools... <BR/><BR/>Wishing you and the doggies warm nights til you can get it fixed. <BR/><BR/>HollyCreekHiker / HollysFollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987597104795294851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1162605372490441822006-11-03T19:56:00.000-06:002006-11-03T19:56:00.000-06:00We heated with a wood stove when we liven in an OL...We heated with a wood stove when we liven in an OLD farm house in Sarcoxie MO.
