Good morning everyone. Yea, I know it's early, so what!:angry: Ok, I'm sorry for being in a bad mood but; I was sleeping peacably away when I started getting jabbed in the ribs. I should have truly thought it was someone hitting me in a dream and hit back but Noooooo,
I had to say "what's wrong honey"? She said "doesn't it feel cold in here to you"? I told her not until she woke me up. "I don't think the furnace is working, she said". UhOh, oh no, gosh darn it (a little more forcful), &*%&^$^%$, she was right, the &%$%$^ furnace was off and it's under the (*^&^*0 house! So it's up I get and start looking for my overalls that I haven't seen in a year or more. I finally find them jammed into a hall closet so I put them on. I was starting to feel like a warrior getting ready to do battle. Out of the house into the two inches of snow I go. I then realized that I should have worn something other than my warrior Top Sider deck shoes as I instantly had snow in them and wet feet. I take the access cover off of the upper deck and start my ridiculously slow crawl under the house. I finally get to the furnace and yep, it's not working. BRILLIANT! Jabbing at the little reset button didn't want to do the trick so the yelling up to Nancy begins to bring me this tool or that tool. Just as she gets to the access door I try one more push of the button and Voila', the darn thing fires up.Yippppeeeeeee... I sit under there for a while, butt getting colder and colder until I'm sure it's ok. Soooo, I'm sitting here writing this while it gets hotter and hotter in here but I'm not going to turn it down for awhile.:huh: Nancy is back in bed, the dogs have had their romp in the snow and didn't want to come in, and here I am wide awake. O well, let me pick up my favorite reading material and go back to bed and try to get sleepy, the BPS catalog. I promised Bill in VA I would look for some new rod and reels for him.
Everyone have a great and safe day.
