Those COVID tests the government sent you might not work. Cold weather could be to blame.

Finished entering fixes, some of which involved Muse Margaret's approval. Turns out proofer two caught a very important thing that required me to add a few lines to an early chapter. That's done and I have to read them to the Muse.

Wow, can’t wait to see what that is!

(((HUGS))) for Larry

We drive to Florida starting in the 21st

vixmom · « **Reply #131 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:05:36 PM »

We ran into a snowstorm as we were exiting Virginia , and drive through it all the way through to Lumberton

vixmom · « **Reply #132 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:06:14 PM »

The week was rainy and cold, but we got to spend time with the kids

vixmom · « **Reply #133 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:06:22 PM »

So that was nice

vixmom · « **Reply #134 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:07:01 PM »

The day we were heading back to New York, we heard that there was a snowstorm

vixmom · « **Reply #135 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:07:10 PM »

In fact it was a doozy

vixmom · « **Reply #136 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:08:02 PM »

We spoke to our neighbor and learned there was up to three feet of snow in our driveway

vixmom · « **Reply #137 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:11:48 PM »

So using the wonders of the inter webs while driving ( well while Vixdad was driving) I located a local company which would clear our driveway, walkway and front stoop fir the bargain price if $250 payable by credit card

vixmom · « **Reply #138 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:12:34 PM »

But we were rather over a barrel so charge we did

vixmom · « **Reply #139 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:14:10 PM »

We were glad when we got home to the frozen tundra that was our neighbor hood to find that they truly had cleared right down to the concrete and even went so far as to clean off vixdads car which was parked in our double driveway

vixmom · « **Reply #140 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:14:48 PM »

It was the last bit of joy for the evening as we opened the door to find it was somehow even colder inside than outside

vixmom · « **Reply #141 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:15:03 PM »

The furnace had failed while we were away

vixmom · « **Reply #142 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:15:44 PM »

We called our plumber ( this was 7 pm on Sunday night) and to his credit he arrived within the hour

vixmom · « **Reply #143 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:16:07 PM »

He got it started but it wouldn’t stay lit

vixmom · « **Reply #144 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:16:59 PM »

And he didn’t have the part he needed to replace, but promised to be back before 9 am with the new part

vixmom · « **Reply #145 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:17:59 PM »

So we put layered up, put on hoodies, hats and double socks, extra blankets and went to bed with heating pads

vixmom · « **Reply #146 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:18:23 PM »

The next day I went back to work and Vixdad stayed home with the plumber

vixmom · « **Reply #147 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:18:36 PM »

Who did indeed fix the furnace

vixmom · « **Reply #148 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:19:08 PM »

For less than the cost of a new kidney

vixmom · « **Reply #149 on:** February 07, 2022, 08:19:55 PM »

Soon Vixdad called me to tell me that the house was getting warm
