Not much to write here today, but my furnace officially is zoned into two loops: one for the main level, and one for the upstairs where my office and Laura’s room are. I recently wrote a post about zoning your furnace, and other tips on reducing your heating cost.
This was a big job, and hopefully it will be worth the effort and make things more comfortable here. It took my “furnace guy” Wally and his son Jason about 6.5 hours to complete. Everything is working great, and I now have a new thermostat in my office!

Oh, to be a home owner. The most insignificant things just thrill me. Who would have ever thought I’d be so excited about GUTTERS? Not I. But I am, because I didn’t have them on the back of my house. Now they are shiny and new and beautiful. I’m pumped! What Blooms with What? Never…
Pretty irrelevant to this DIY blog, but very much a milestone in my life, is the sale of my previous home in Scranton. On May 25, 2012 I sold the house to my neighbors who live across the street. I couldn’t be happier for them, and relieved and excited to move on to this next…
The 5ft wide pre-fab concrete steps have been in place for about a week. The REALLY cool thing, though, is that they took my old railing (which was rotted and falling down), and pulled the little squiggly design off of it, then welded it onto a brand new railing. After some sand, primer, and paint…
