Sitting here with frozen hands......it's 49F outside....& 65 in my upstairs bedroom....but my hands are always cold anyway....need to winterproof my house before the real cold hits....my sweet dogs ruined the weather stripping around my front door, so when the wind blows, it comes right in & up the stairs......have all the parts to fix it with, but when I tried them, it still didn't seal right....need to come up with a better fix....but at least it will be a start....better than the nothing my dog's left for me....lol.

Love going into the basement during the winter.....it's always the warmest part of the house....especially when the heater isn't working. Had a call into the heating company & they never returned my call this week....when I called, they were still out.....have to come up with some kind of fix....but hoping I can actually take the distributor to court & get the right matching heat pump system.....they blew it selling to a non-licensed person....or if he used a license....hopefully I can go after the person whose license he used......but it's winter & the part that makes the switching valvue work isn't working.....will see if they will just hot wire it for the heater or what I end up doing.....grumble......grumble......I am determined to keep my heating bill down this winter.....hopefully no major problems.....room heaters work ok for the kitchen (my dogs) & my bedroom (me & my other 3 dogs)....but it doesn't keep the pipes from freezing in the rest of the house.

Little things I never worried about living in California....but KY has winter which I love.....but need to be prepared.

Someday this house will be fixed.....I hope,
Debbie
