A new furnace

Tuesday was a bit hotter than yesterday. During exercise, I had a severe intestinal problem that I struggled with for more than an hour. After that we worked on the backyard. We moreless finished what we needed to do. We have just one more timber and some more mulch to spread and we will quit. I also went to a friend to tell get his advice regarding our heater/air conditioner. Ours had lost Freon and the coils were covered with a three inch case of ice. He told me about the unit he has. I had wanted to get a heat pump when the current furnace expires. We decided to buy a package unit that is larger than our current one and will be entirely outside the unit, eliminating the noise of the fan that sometimes wakens Evelyn. The new unit and some repair on the ductwork will cost $3200 but will be guaranteed for 10 years. The company will begin installation tomorrow. We had lunch and then showered and napped for a few minutes. I went to Wal-Mart to get some label sheets to copy our NC address for the forwarding of our mail. I got some groceries for Sunday and some empty medicine vials to contain quarters I collect and came home--without the label sheets that I had forgotten. I also forgot to get any Roundup. We have some Bermuda grass that we have to kill so it doesn’t spread into the mulch. I also stopped to get the medicine from the pharmacy. The Wal-Mart in Waynesville had filled the prescriptions even though I never ordered them. They had to reverse the order before I could get the medicine I needed. I can’t get enough to last through he cruise, so I will ask the doctor for some samples. I came home for supper and then we had our friends from Winnipeg come to play hand and foot. We had a late dessert and then they left for the season.
