Still alive and well

Today we had our 105 gallon hot water heater installed It hooks into our geothermal furnace It took several evenings of work on Gerry's part to get the plumbing right. Previously there were two smaller heaters so he had to redo the plumbing so everything was hooked to the new one. Even after all his work, it took five hours to get in installed. Now we have an used furnace, used air conditioner and two water heaters to dispose of.

I have over-scheduled myself for the next two weeks, but all the activities should be fun. Thursday I leave for Savannah, GA for six days, am home part of one day then leave for MD for Andrew's defense. The day after returning home, I am hosting my book club at my house. Instead of reading a book, in April we each read a favorite poem, which I haven't chosen yet. So life is busy for me.

Weather changes

We had rain for a week, which caused all the snow to be gone. There was a lot of flooding around us, water over roads, and such. Our house stayed dry except for where it seeped in by the window wells in the basement. Gerry has covered then since. But, last night the snow returned: about 4 inches so it is all white again. Thankfully, we will not need to use the snow blower.

Today is clean the house and cook ahead meals day since tomorrow Shawn and a friend of Gerry's are coming over to help Gerry put together a tractor that has been apart for over a year. We really need to get it out of the shop (so other things can go in!!!).

Back from vacation

It has been over a month since I posted. The time was spent in Miami (at Renee Michelle and Andrew's house), Miami Beach (with both children and their families), the Bahamas and Key West (with sister Marge from MN). She, by the way was on the last flight out of Minneapolis before they closed the airport due to a blizzard. I returned Thursday and have not even downloaded my pictures. I will post some when I get to that. First I need to make sure there are no overdue bills. I won't even go into the difference in weather. All I can hope for is that Spring comes soon.
