    When I was a kid, my mom would have me walk up and down her back while she lay on her stomach on the floor. Back would pop and crack like crazy, always freaked me out as a kid but now it sounds amazing, can't wait until I can get Sofia to do the same to me

    You guys need a good chiropractor.

    You saw how bad my back was via Xray; I'm way better now than I was 2 years ago.

    It’s awesome.

    too bad it’s a temp fix for an issue of working in weird places of a vehicle all day

    My back aged ten years the first time I did a brake job on a bus. The damn brake caliper weighs at least 100 pounds.

    Heat pumps are not as "strong" at heating once the temperatures drop. Works well in mild climates but when it is real cold they don't tend to keep up where a furnace can. They are generally cheaper to install and operate making them a sounds choice in mild climates.

    They do make cold climate pumps that are rated to like -15, I was checking out having one for the shop. It's pretty likely that one is not rated for anything below freezing, especially if it's older lol

    @04Pre_Runner mine ran constant this weekend. Anything below 30 degrees and it rarely shuts off. Putting a heat pump on an older home with poor insulation is a bad idea. They work well on homes that are built to modern blower door specs and are well insulated.

    Yeah it sounds like every part of the trip was a handful haha. Starting and ending with a big drive takes a lot of energy

    Mine was pretty chill, Christmas Eve my friends made chili and we hung out, Christmas day I went to another friends to have dinner with his parents and new gf

    What's your insulation like? I have foam boards under vinyl siding but as far as I can tell the wall cavities aren't air sealed or insulated. Waiting for my $750 gas bill for December after our cold snap. I keep the tsat 50-60

    Wish I had the relentless energy I did when I did everything at my old house. I'd like to rewire, vacuum insulation out of the attic, air seal, and reinsulate but I think I'm gonna have to pay for all of it to be done

    Nothing in the exterior walls, R30 batts in the attic and some spotty R30 in the crawlspace.

    In other words, its very poor. But the house was built for oil heat which was dirt cheap at the time so it made no sense to insulate.

    So how f-ing shady is that? Not only did TG receive the payment from me when I ordered, now they're receiving payment again but this time from UPS. They never refunded me, CC co did. It's not just getting paid twice, the UPS claim was for about 80 bucks more than what I was charged. lol fck TG.
