Wednesday, 29 November 2006 - A furnace working overtime

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for a furnace that doesn't mind working overtime (although I dread this month's heating bill).

The weather report claims it's 14 degrees F outside, -8 degrees F with the wind chill. It's even colder in the foothills where we live because we're up another 500 feet in altitude.

T and I just retrieved the mail and experienced the cold and wind firsthand. We both survived the very bitter cold unscathed.

The low will certainly dip below zero. Before going to bed, we'll lower the thermostat from 63 to 60 degrees F. I must remember to drip the bathroom faucet tonight.

For this blessing, I am grateful.
Amen.
