The Parade of Misfortune Continues.

12-11-24 SHORT HILLS: Well things get stranger and stranger. First we lost heat here. The house temp settled at 65° and wouldn’t go higher. The problem, of course, happened on a weekend. Our calls to the installer were unanswered. A man from the gas company thought both the pumps of our tandem burners were dead. An agent from Pipe Works Services arrived next and was able to rig the pump that was working with parts from the other furnace to give us some heat. We decided to go with them for the repair, which turned into replacing the 22 year old units with new ones, which happened yesterday. We are now toasty warm.


Next problem is Facebook. All my posts are missing. Restarting, logging out and back in, FB help were all unable to restore the posts. I spoke to Val, who said that she could see my posts which was some relief. I’ll try it again tomorrow. 


Did I mention that I was hospitalized for pneumonia complicated by pulmonary emboli? I looked back and saw that I covered that episode. Rehab continues with walking and leg exercises. I’m still using the cane, but can do a few steps without it.

 

Emmett and I are both fans of grilled cheese sandwiches.
