let there be heat

I have finally upgraded the heating system in my house. The two winters that I have lived here, I have had all electric heat. This keep the house reasonable, but my electric bill was as high as 500 dollars once or twice. I have now installed and am operating a propane heater in my house. It is mounted to the wall and is keeping the room it is in nice and warm. I now have to determine how to change the setting so that the electric furnace still runs and heats the entire house. I don't think the electric furnace has been on since I ignited the propane heater. I also have to see how much propane and how much it is going to cost me to run propane is going to bee. Ideally I would get an outdoor woodburning furnace, but have decided to hold off on that until I get some other debts paid off.

I also bought my first pair of asics running shoes tonight. Should be fun to see what all the hype is about. I looked at some of the results for the turkey trot I ran and wasn't all that far off from the front of the pack. The first place runner was only about 6 minutes ahead of me, and no one went under the 20 minute mark.
