Hey, malfunctioning furnace twins with Theo! Yay?

Tech is coming at 3p. Ours turns on then immediately shuts down.

It's not too cold out yet, so not a huge problem, except the water, of course. Glad I showered last night before going out to dinner. And that I work from home, ha!

If only I could work from home, but that's not going to happen.

BUT, the plumber is the same guy from last time, so he's been into the innards of the furnace before, and has now ID'd the problem with the internal fuses, so he's gone out to fetch some new ones. In the meantime, the house is heating up. If I knew he was going to be a little while longer to get back, I'd take a quick shower.

Today in my corner of Texas, the high is going to be 69 degrees, not 90. This is very exciting.

Furnace twins for the win, JenP.

High-five.

Dana - why, that's almost Richmond weather!

Good luck with the furnace fixes!

I had to turn my heat on this morning, it was 43°F out when I woke up. The cats are now covering the floor vent in my office, so everything seems to be working as intended.

Oh! We have a water heater. That's nice.

ETA: One of my cats is sitting directly in front of the space heater.

It has warmed up here enough that I can open the window. It's really nice to have the window open.

Im excited that just as our weather is finally turning to typical Seattle, I am flying to the east coast for a week, where it will be 80 degrees on one of the days I’m there (?!?). No idea what to pack. Lows of 45 and highs of 80? I’ll be dancing, and working, and maybe running, and sitting watching soccer which if it’s in the sun could be boiling? But after sun sets, v cold?
