Sigh

As fun yesterday was, as troublesome is today.  My new geo-thermal system quit working last night. I had to drag out the room heaters. The repairman came at 6:45 this morning. Still dark outside. He reprogrammed the thermostat, so it's working now. He gave me some bad news. I knew the system required propane to back it up if the electricity goes out. I invisioned a tank like you use with an outdoor grill, and I supposed they had already installed it. But no. It requires an outdoor tank, which with installation will probably cost me an extra thousand. Sigh. Money is going to be tight for another year. I had to give myself a pep talk. Be strong. Without struggle there can be no sense of accomplishment. Sigh
