I still ain't got nuttin e(cks)cit'n (exciting) to write bout.....But, I'm think'n I can still fix stuff. Maybe. (hey, did you see that? Spell checker just fixed fic).
Anyhows, I been hav'n a time with my water heater. It's been "red light'n" on me an' I ain't got no hot water. I conned Robert into install'n the new thermostat I buyed a couple months ago an' thought my problems was over. Ha...RED LIGHT the next morn'n. Yesterday I adjust the air thingy to get a better flame. RED LIGHT this morn'n. Ok, let's go do something else. How bout check'n the orifice. What I did. Hmmmm, what the hell is that stuff in the orifice? Clean it out an' reinstall. Fire that sucker up an' readjust the air thingy. Hmmmm, sound just like a RV water heater.....ROOOOOAAARR. Or something like that. Will know tomorrow morn'n if it's fixed.
It's been cold at "Yo Mama's RV Resort". Nighttime temps in the low 20's a couple nights with upper 40's day time. Mostly 29 to 31 last couple nights. I dribble the water faucet a little at night so's water lines don't freeze up an' I have to use dog water for my morn'n coffee. Been have to fire up the Mr Heater a couple three times. 10,000 btu's just ain't quite enough from the 2 electric heaters. Adding another 4,500 from the Mr H sure do help bring the inside temp up to 75 or 78 degs. That's set on low. Medium is 9000 an' hi is 18000. Maybe I shoulda never remove the ducted furnace. Had our first sunshine in 2 weeks yesterday an' today. Got to love sunshine.
Health issues still bout the same. Hip hurt like hell most all day long an' stomach issues ain't a whole bunch better. Got off'n aspirin until I feel better. I had to get off the stomach med again. Make me sick for bout a hour or so an' then it plug me slap up. Wait'n for word from the doctor.
Work on a boat??? Well hell no. I still got to get the desktop clean off an' put up some the no longer needed stuff. But I DID warsh up some dishes again. That's bout the jist of my do'n stuff.

Billy Bob, I am sure glad to hear from you. I always look forward to your posts and worry when you haven't written in a while. I sure wish you were in warmer weather, but luckily your heaters seem to be doing a good job. Hugs from Jool -

ReplyDeleteToo bad that furnace in the dumpster

ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you. The cold weather won't last all that long and then we'll all be complaining about the heat! I got my long underwear out and I feel pretty warm most of the time. Hope your water heater fix is ok.
ReplyDeleteBB you seem to be a man of constant sorrow
ReplyDeleteLooking at the weather report, I have to think of you. Hope you are makin it all right!!!!
ReplyDeleteIf you've got pain problems, that hot water working is a must in the cold temperatures of night. When your muscles stiffen up, the pain can get worse. Our hot water once went out after one shower. I had to fix the water heater, but ended up calling a pro. Turns out, it was more complicated than we thought.
