During the night our furnace stopped working. It got mighty cold. Josh and Tyler woke up and ended up in bed with Tony and me about 3:30 am. So Tony brought the heater that we put in the boys room in with us and we were all nice and cozy. The furnace repair people came about noon and said that it was the gas valve. So $450 later, we now have a working furnace. It is a lot of money, but it could have been much worse so I will count my blessings. Our furnace is old, so we never know when it is going to just die on us. Hopefully it will last until we move to a new house...some day far away.
I also had the chair cleaner come and clean the recliner and the large couch and half the front room carpet. It is nice having those things all clean, at least for a little while. I am sure it wont last long with my two dirty making boys.
My birthday is in a week. I can't believe that I will be 30. Not like I am freaking out that I am going to be so old, it just seems weird to be 30. As far as I know we don't have any plans. We usually go to my parents for dinner and cake and ice cream on my birthday, but they are dieting, so they won't be doing that for me this year. Maybe I will just make my own cake and me and my little family will enjoy it. My mom did take me out and buy my sewing stuff to go with my new sewing machine. I have already started using some of it and am having a good time. I have wanted to learn to sew better for a while now, so it has been good for me. Maybe someday I will be able to make really fun things, until then I will stick with making burp cloths.

Maybe we should make some fun craft together, I have a sewing machine that is just gathering dust.
Glad you were able to get the furnace fixed before the storm tonight.
Happy upcoming birthday!! I know what you mean, 30 seems old but it's really not. I'll be there soon too! Life goes so fast.
