We're back in business with a new furnace. The "patch" from early in the week had already failed by Thursday morning, when the new furnace install began. The new heat pump is supposed to be about twice as efficient as the old one. So far, it seems to be doing it's job.
I don't consider myself a big gadget person, but I've been intrigued by Amazon's Kindle for a couple years. I researched their first generation electronic book reader, but it had some short-comings. When version 2 was announced, I gave in and placed my order. It was delivered yesterday (when, of course, I didn't get home until after 9:00pm due to volleyball), so I haven't had a chance to do much with it yet, but I'm pretty pleased so far. It fits in my purse, will hold 1500 books, and is easy to read. I won't give up old-fashioned paper books entirely, but I will no longer need an extra bag for reading material when I'm on vacation - I'll just take my Kindle.

I'm glad you have your furnace replaced.I wish winter was almost over but I think there's still a few more blasts to go. I always wish I had a wood stove for back up when ever I hear of ice storms and power failures. Maybe one day.
I'm saving my money for a kindle, I too was waiting for the new model. Keep me updated on how you like it.
