Karen wants to know if you have a CO detector in case that overheated heat exchangers is bleeding combustion gasses into your living space.

Have you installed on of those fine particle air filters that lower flow?


I've played with different levels of filtration from the meshy blue cheapos to the high end 3M ones. The cheapos hold out longer, the expensive ones last about 3 weeks. With two very furry dogs and a cat in the house, I settled on midgrade and change monthly - they're usually pretty full.

Wife likes to close off all the registers in the house except the bedrooms at the farthest end of the runs. Doesn't seem to help anything IMO but she insists it does and continues to do it. I added a heat register in the well room a while ago to counter that. So far two days in the extra return opening seems to be doing the trick.

Of course there's CO detectors in the house. One in the basement at the bottom of the stairwell where natural air currents would be passing upwards and another in the hallway by the bedrooms.

Wife doesn't like the dog upstairs... I could give a damn, so he's upstairs with me.

She'll be home soon, though... so it's time for us to go downstairs. Frying pan

I can’t vouch for the North Korean experience,
but I’ve had stir-fried Shiba Inu.

Long week, I just want to grab a bottle sit in my easy chair till I pass out.... must resist the temptation though. Being outside for extended periods in below zero temperatures I can hear the rattle in my chest, trying to self medicate and not go to the doctor, then belly of the trailer was a sheet of ice, I tried to be careful and still fell and landed on my ribs pretty good, not helping the situation above, bruised, bleeding, and sore. Seems like a good first run at hauling livestock.

I’ve got a pair of boots that I’ve screwed metal spikes in,
and a pair of winter boots that I have crampons permanently attached to.

Try it. You will never slip and fall again...

A lovely 47 going to 76 and sunny today. Will be sending this east to Texas soon.

Looks like Mario and crew will finish the paver walk today. Glad I didn't attempt to do this myself after watching what goes into it.

Ain't warming up here that's for sure. Nice n sunny, but 0° when I left work.

Last Monday I was going down a pretty narrow road and a plow was coming in the other direction. I moved to the side a bit too much and the shoulder dropped off from the road, hooking my tire and pulling me over. Broke off a signpost don't even remember what sign it was other than it was yellow and said wuh oh when it was right in front of my face. Boy was with me and told wife, wife asked if I said any bad words and boy said "he went wuhhohh like a song". Initially checked out no visible damage to the truck but today enough of the ice had melted off the truck and it gave me a good dent in the bumper. That bumper is pretty heavy gauge steel. Glad I don't have a painted plastic bumper cover or I'd have to actually do something about it.

Furnace/ductwork adjustment seems to be doing the trick. Normally I wear a jacket and hat indoors all winter. Wife wears a sweatshirt, boy wears underpants or shorts n t shirt. I can not stand being even slightly cold. I'll sweat all day over 10 minutes of being cold. But I also can't afford a heating bill to keep the house at 68-70. Still have thermostat the same but it feels much warmer everywhere in the house. And the furnace isn't running for an hour at a time. Am actually warm and took my hat off.

Not as cold as it's been here in Indianapolis. Hanging in the garage with a cigar while working. Saturday work courtesy of a client deployment. One bad thing of consulting, always living by client's schedule.

Probly needs more.

Back to work. No cowbell. But. Many many years ago when I worked in the ED, I had a small cowbell magnet. We had a whiteboard that we wrote patient info on to track in the dept. It was magnetic. I'd stick it next to patients that came in for fever. I don't think anyone got the joke but me, eventually it got thrown away. I was entertained.
