Putting in a Boiler

I think this picture kind of tells it all.

But if you're not into the whole brevity thing:

Captain's Log: As of Monday, Dec 7th, the boiler hasn't been able to stay on. It turns on and then shuts down with some red light that indicates some gas issue illuminated. We had it ready to go this past Friday - We were minutes away from having the warm touch of heat pumping through our house... or so we thought. And not a moment too soon. Snow and Icy Rain were coming over the weekend. But it kept... shutting itself off....! Argh ! No! Nooooo!

So this past weekend, we braved another weekend of extreme cold in the house. By now, we're used to it. It used to phase me, but I've been learning the ancient art of patience and how to suffer gracefully. Perhaps we are characters in some sort of historical re-enactment. Titled... the first residents of Philadelphia. People wore wool coats, and generally suffered during winter, burning wood in drafty brick buildings. I imagine meals of thin potato soup with the occasional side of boiled shoe or wool coat.

So, you know... we're kickin' it old school.
