Good news and bad news

The good news is there's probably nothing wrong with my furnace.

The bad news is I have an old house in a cold state.

Apparently, my expectations of my furnace are too high. The kind of furnace we have in a house this old when temperatures are frigid is just not capable of warming the house 10 degrees more without a few hours of work time. So, I don't have to spend a bunch of money on a costly furnace repair, but I do have to accept being chilly.

Just one more excuse to knit.
