Brandi  I have been meaning to ask how's your foot is doing?  Hoping it's better.

Oh thanks for asking! It is so much better! I just occasionally feel a small twinge.

But get this! I tripped over our dog Brandi Thursday night in the dark, and fell flat onto the kitchen floor! Both knees must have hit the floor first and they were hurting. I put ice on them right away, and lucked out again! Just a few days of bruising-like pain and I am doing fine.

I really have to learn to stop falling. I do take a med for my nerve damage pain that causes balance issues, but really. This is getting ridiculous. I googled falling tendencies and learned a few tips to help keep me stable.

Working on it!

Glad it is better. Please learn not to fall down! We would miss you here!

Thanks for the thought today. Just got home a bit ago with mom. She did well. She is not happy that she can not drive for a month. We live in a rural area and she helps out with my sister's twins. Guess I will need to buy more gas because I have a feeling I am going to be doing some driving. Thank goodness we live close to each other.

So glad she did well. Thanks for the update.

Yes, losing one's independence, even temporarily is no fun.

Nice your family lives pretty close to each other.

Gas up, girl, I think you're right. LOL

(Thanks for your kind words about me and my propensity to fall.)

Glad to hear your mom is doing okay. Ya it's a bummer to have your driving curtailed even for a little while. Sounds like you are going to be busy for the next month or so. Maybe bye then the dang cold will be gone.

Got the power and water turned on at the "new house" for the inspection.

Inspection this Friday. And the high is supposed to be 32º after a 16º low the night before! Brrrr.

Inspection expected to last about 3 hours or more.

I plan on taking measurements of everything! I have made a floor plan of both levels so I can just add the measurements to it.

Hope the inspector turns on the heat pump (anyone have experience with heat pumps?) and the house is not frigid.

Will be sure to let you all know about the results. I am very nervous, hoping there is not a deal-killer found during the inspection.

I am also hoping this is the last major hurdle towards closing.

I have a heat pump and love it - what kind of questions do you have?

Well, this home has only a heat pump. For heating and cooling. Does it do both well? I am used to having a separate central air conditioning unit where I have lived.

We don't have any backup heating system in the home either, do we need one? And if so, what kind of backup heating systems are there?

Glad you love yours.

Let me add that there is no backup heating system that I am aware of. Guess I'll find out more on Friday when the inspector is doing his thing.

I am used to an electric forced-air furnace, but I hear heat pumps use a fraction of the energy they use. I am concerned that the heat pump will get the house as warm as I like it. I have become so cold-natured recently! And as cool as I like it in the summer. It gets hot and humid here in the summer.

We do have a wood-burning fireplace, but I don't think that would be considered a backup system. LOL More like an emergency system, when power is out. Wink

Even in her ripe old age, she is faster than I am. LOL

She got out of the way quickly, as I tumbled onto the kitchen floor.

She's such a sweetheart!
