So, we now have hot water but have to do something before cold weather sets in.  We’ll probably get a new tank put into the cellar and not use the one buried in the backyard any more.

Ahhhh, the joys of home ownership.  Did  I mention my over is falling apart?

I had planned to do some heavy duty writing today. I really want to get my next wolfie finished.  Then, I discovered I had no hot water.  Now there was a distinct possiblility that I’d run our of heating oil. (’We have baseboard hot water heat.)  (We also have a 1000 gallon tank buried in the backyard with no oil gague so I have no idea how much oil is in it.)  I called my regular service but they couldn’t deliver before Monday because they only had one delivery person today — in Williamsport only.  So I found the phone book and started calling.  First two - no answer.  Third, no guarantee of delivery today.  Fourth, I got a very nice man who now has my business because his oil was only $4.27.9 a gallon. (ACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Anyway, oil truck comes - I still have over 400 gallons of oil.  ( I got 150 gallons anyway because who knows how much it will cost once the weather starts turning cold.)

This means there’s something wrong with the furnace.  So, I called that nice man back only he was in a meeting.  The woman I talked to was also nice and said she’d either call me back or have their repairman call me.  That was at noon.

Two o’clock, no phone call.   So, I called them back.  The woman answered but gave the phone to the nice man who was back from his meeting.  He promised to have a man out today.  Five minutes later, he called back to let me know the repairman’s schedule so I wouln’t get worried when he didn’t show up right away.

I’m pretty sure the furnace will be fixed, but, damn, the hassle threw a bucket of cold water on my muse.

Don’t you just love a day like this?

So those of you who like my aliens, the long wait is over!

I enjoy gardening and am in the process of changing my current plot into raised beds.  Well, I have a bunny nest in my onions.  Last year, baby bunnies drove me nuts by eating my string bean plants.  I’ll bet the mother of this current crop is one of the babies from last year, the stinker.  That’s one of the reasons I decided to do the raised beds.  I’ll take the fence down — it didn’t keep the baby bunnies out anyway — and lay the wire on top of the bed with the beans.  Hopefully that will work.  It used to be that our dog scared the living daylights out of any rabbit that dared set foot in our yard, but now at 13, he just lies in the shade and watches them hop around.

So, good luck to all my compatriots out there, and may the bunnies leave you in peace.
