I'm Thankful for Heat

Heat is something I've always taken for granted. In the last two weeks or so, our furnace has gone out about 5 different times. Ryan figured out if you turn the fan off, then back on, the heat will start up again. My co-workers husband is the repair man for them and we've been talking to him all along. He told us it could be the filter, so we changed that. It worked for a few days. Then on Monday, it went out again. After resetting it four times, we finally got it to stay on. The repairman had to look at it when it was broken, and of course it never broke during the day, only at 5:00 pm or in the middle of the night. Anyway, it really shut down last night at about 5:30. (of course this is all happening on the week when we've had a high temperature of 10 degrees) We reset the thermostat every five minutes until we went to bed without heat. We stuck Celeste in our room and had a space heater going to keep us warm. The rest of the house was chilly this morning! Finally the repairman was able to come over, figure out what was wrong, and of course the part wasn't in! So our furnace will be fixed tomorrow morning. That leaves us without heat for about 40 hours. I'm anxious for our heat to be back on and to get rid of the space heaters. I'm very thankful for heat!
