Putting the warm back in the floor
And then the man came and he put the warm back in the floor. That’s about the easiest way I can explain how we are lucky. Our home system for heating is a little bit technical and sometimes things happen. When we came back from travel last weekend the floors were cold. We have had this before and we knew exactly who to call. The technician arrived put in an hour to make sure of what he was doing and then left with everything back in order. Something I cannot do for myself. The technical is a circulating pump which I can imagine but not replace and so we depends upon my local company to take care of any such details. Which they do. I tried to imagine what it was like back in the day when you put together your system and if it broke you had to find a way to fix it. Probably things were simpler but they still would stop. If you did not have the skills to repair what had broken you could find yourself in a world of hurt as they say with the approach of winter I understand what cold means. This happened at exactly the right moment with temperatures still in double digits and with no storm heading our way. As I bid farewell to the technician I thanked him and said I hoped I would not see him again for awhile. He said you would be surprised how many people say that exact same thing when I come to their house. I wonder do I give someone a repair complex? I know that having spent years caring for the computer needs of a large group of people, things break. Part of the game. And the faster you can repair something that is damaged the easier the impact will be on the people involved. I always did my best to mitigate the problem. Anyhow we can probably put away the big blanket on the bed now because the house is coming back up to a state of normal.
