Supposed to get some 'weather' today.. high 83 giving way to tunderboomers and an overnight low of 41. That's one heck of a drop in temps.

Every had one of those weeks where it started great, went down hill rapidly and before the end of the day you are muttering, 'Well Crud' and wondering if the rest of the week is going to be the same?

That's how the week started here. Our whole house tankless hot water heater stopped working. Under normal conditions, no bit deal but it's only a year old and DH had a doctor's appointment and all we have is a shower so you get the picture.

Poor guy worked on it all afternoon and can't find anything wrong with it mechanically so he's now replacing the LP regulator before he contacts the company and request a warranty replacement of the unit. In the mean time, no hot water unless we heat it on the wood stove or stove.

Are any of you having trouble getting bedding chips for your birds? I swear peeps around here are hoarding it like toilet paper in a covid pandemic. I may have to resort to opening one of our bales of straw and using it because I really need to get my coops cleaned.

Other than that, hope everyone is staying well and safe.

Our tankless water heater stopped working last December- also a year old. The was a small screw that was leaking on the top- just a drip. But it went inside the contraption and it shorted it. When all goes smoothly you forget what all water is doing for you! Cold house and all!! How they find your problem soon. It's great being under warranty but we discovered ours late in the evening when they charge over time for labor and had to go to the next town for parts. Nothing better then being able to do your own work!
