      seems the -12 F did not agree with it last night. It is up to 64 in the house now though.

      I woke up shivering during a recent cold snap. Furnace was OK but the thermostat had given up the ghost during the night. Fortunately a pretty quick fix.

      Sounds like the same front we had last night. Subzero temps do not make Mondays any easier. *refills coffee*

      One of the reasons I went for a condo instead of a house. Winter maintenance bites in this part of the country.
