The weather has taken a turn, and it's been cold over here. We've been working like mad to try to get the heating system in before it gets worse. Over the last 3 days we've relocated and cut out floor vents, attached the boots (believe it or not I can work a drill now), built and ran insulated ductwork under the house, built return airvents, and the stackpipes that go in the walls. We figure we've got 2 more days of work until we can have the heater reconnected, but it's going to be a bit delayed.
Tomorrow we're going to Boise for a few days for a medical seminar. We had been planning all spring and summer to ride the greenbelt with our kids during this trip, but it's supposed to rain, with a high of 48, so we won't be doing that until next year. Bad luck!
When we get back we have to delay the heating system a few more days so David can jack up the back corner of the house. It slopes down toward the back corner and we'd like to have it straight before we put the siding on. The reason we have to do it right now is because we have to take the windows out to do it, and this is the only time David has a few days in a row to do it. The weather is cold, so we have to do it as quickly as possible.
I'm really looking forward to getting through the madness and having a little more family time. Hopefully by the end of October. Some days I feel like I've jumped on a bicycle that's going down a really steep hill. It keeps going faster, but I don't dare jump off. Help meeeeeee!
