Wait.... they were using beef? I thought it was Kangaroo meat....

 

Thats down under. Dingo country.

 

Maybe the dingos ate your baby ?

 

uhhh....i dont really think dingo's like canadians either!!

 

woohoo!!!! I have a job now!!!!

 

my name would be Buster Cherry

i hear taht beef got traced back to Canada

seriously, if we see you posting less or you dont make sig's on demand, you're gonna have to quit your job and come back to TW

 

Grrrreat!

 

Thanks guys! I'm so excited! I've gotten used to being home with the kids and all, but it's been since October and I need to get out of the house! I'm going nuts just sitting home all day, and mods on the truck had to slow a bit.

Its a m-f, 9-6 job as a bench tech at a small computer repair place. I might have time between incoming orders, or over lunch. Either way I'll be on at night and weekends to unwind. I'll have to see how it goes. I used to have TN up all the time at my last job (before I found TW), but I was also in an office at the back of the building by myself.

 

congrats on the new job,pt!!! and an hour for lunch too......hell yeah!

 

I'm happy for you PT. Now you can buy new windows and a HE furnace .

 

Congrats PT!

 

Yeah! I planned on using tax money for windows, but we'll leave that in savings for next winter's oil.... $2,000 should be enough.

We have an efficient furnace, but I'm thinking about buying another controller. Maybe one that lets the water temp drop only 10 degrees instead of 20 before kicking on the furnace. I've heard that would help too. At least if we can get the windows done we'll probably spend less on heating regardless of the source.

Thanks! It's less than I was making before so I don't see a winch bumper or sliders in my near future, but maybe after a couple raises....

 

When did this become a "Show your face" thread?

 

I think someone needs to scientifically prove my theory that kids suck the life force out of you until they move out....

Why else would I be exhausted 3 hours after waking up and my kids are bouncing off the walls like squirrels on crack?

 

It does not make sense. Your hot water set back temp is irrelevant because when your furnace kicks in, it has to meet your supply set point. No matter what your differential is either 10 or 20 degrees, your furnace will use the same amount of energy to reach the set point even though it sits idle longer with a 20 degree set back.

BTW, what is your HW set point and do you have an OAT reset?
