Cold!

Posted in Just Thoughts

Well I’m still sick but starting to feel a little better.  I came down with a nasty head cold on Thursday.  The two oldest little ones had it yesterday to but are all better now! 

It was very cold when I got up this morning, I herd it went down to 0C last night! Burrrr I would think we had a frost but I wasn’t up early enough to know for sure.  I was very glad I brought my potted plants in yesterday.  I had a hibiscus, rosemary, and stevia plant on the porch. 

 

 

Today is our shopping day, only need a few thing this time.  But we have to stop at our insurance office.  We have been trying to put in a wood stove and dealing with everyone having different regulations!  Our insurance company would tell us one thing, then the hardware store would say something different, and then a stove shop would tell us something all together different.  Arrrg!  So we decided we would just lesson to our insurance agent because after all they are the ones that can cut it off if you’re not up to there code.  This is the first place we’ve lived in we have had to have insurance (because we have a mortgage) it was so much simpler when we didn’t have to deal with them!  Anyway dh talked to them last Monday with a list of a few questions.  They were going to get a hold of the insurance inspector and get back to us the next day.  Four days latter nothing…grr…Well we will be stopping in there when we go to town to see what’s up.  We left it in prayer to God that if he wants us to put this stove in this year we will have our answers today.  Because the snow will be flying in  a few more weeks, we need heat and can’t be up on the steel roof in the snow/wind!

If we don’t get the answers we need then we will use the money to finish the dry wall and other things the house needs.  Dh would like to have it in sellable condition by next year.

 

 

Anyway I’m hoping to pick up a few more storage containers so I can sort through all our close pack up the summer stuff and bring out the winter clothes.  Then I’ll have a better idea of what I need to buy/sew for us.
