Today's the Day!

Meows from Mudpie!

Today's the big day...our oil furnace is coming out and the new gas furnace is going in! To say Mommy is a nervous wreck would be an understatement. She's even brought my carrier into the front hall just in case the house goes kaboom before the day is over. (If you hear on the news tonight about a crazy woman desperately throwing one little tortie and a large Conway collection out the window to safety, that'll be us.)


She's also worried about how I'll react to strange men going in and out of the house all day because that hasn't happened since I've been here. Not to mention it's January in Vermont and we'll be most of the day without heat so I'll likely be turning into a frozen Mudpie.

Wish us luck! Oh, and have we mentioned that now our hot water heater has developed a (thankfully small, so far) leak? So the home repair project nightmares continue...

  7. Good luck, hope you have heat tonight! My 36 year old gas furnace is a Williamson too--they are the best, that's why it lasted so long. Keep warm!

  9. Sounds like a fun day. Do they have to dig the oil tank out too? Small leaks have a way of becoming big leaks but at least you don't have to worry about flooding your downstairs neighbor.

  10. It's relatively warm here this morning. Hope the heat wave extends up to Vermont (and any associated snow holds off) till youall get your heat fixed.

  12. Hokey Smokes! Good luck, Mudpie and peep, but I'm thinking that the installers know what they are doing, since they don't want to go kablooey either!

  14. Whew. You and your mommy are having a little too much "fun" these days, Mudpie. We hope all is going well, and that everything slows down for you very soon!

  15. It is difficult to have strange people come into your house so we suggest going UTB. You and Mom will be happy with the new furnace. We have gas and it is nice. Warm thoughts Mudpie
