ckf Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Currently 6⁰ with a couple of inches of new snow. Looks like the real cold air misses us this time. Temps start warming to the low to mid teens tomorrow and 20s after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold War Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Not this stupid shit again. Even the most hardcore global warmers are not hopping in their car at these temperatures and driving away.

Grout should be sealed once a year. We built a new colonial to look old back in 2006. Not too big, not too small. High end builder, good materials.

Worked well the entire afternoon and evening. Woke up this morning and it wasn't working again. They are coming at 4pm to take another look. Went to Menards and bought an electric fireplace for the living room and another electric heater for the basement in the meantime. House is warming up very slowly in the meantime. Had that happen last year on Christmas morning with a house full of people coming. Figured no way Im finding any parts on Christmas. I called a guy to come out thinking, yeah, it’s Christmas, he going to charge me hard. Understandable, he is leaving his family to come over. Jesus Christ!!! The guy absolutely raped me.
