What is that amount for you probably ask? Well that is the cost of a pressure switch for a Carrier furnace. Now how would I know something like that you ask? Well let me paint the scene… it is currently a temp of -20°C and a wind chill of -35°C with winds NW at 30 km/h, gusting to 39 km/h so wouldn’t you think that the coldest day of the year so far is the abosolute perfect day for a furnace to say “You know what… I am tired of making heat so I won’t do that anymore, I will just blow cold air!” That way, you can wake up in the morning with the temperature of the house set to 19°C but the temperature of the house actually being 12°C! That is sweet! $298.53 and a new Pressure Switch later we have heat, that’s how I know!

I am sick and tired of shovelling and it is only the second week of January!

It figures, the year we don’t hire Mr Plow, we are getting huge snowfalls here…

Well I moved up into the Intermediate class a little while ago now and got my yellow belt in under 3 months so I was pretty pleased about that. Along with the new class level comes a new heavy weight gi, perfect for the grappling and floor work that we will be doing soon!

Cam and I have been training pretty hard lately. With me doing my GBM class 4 times a week and Cam doing his Little Dragons class usually 3 times a week, we have both been promoted to our 2nd stripes. Next step for me is a red tip and then testing for the next belt. I am having an absolute blast doing it again, I wish I didn’t take so many years to get back into it!

When washing the van/car next time, not to leave the mats out on the newly soded grass (even for a couple of minutes) when it is a million degrees outside.
