Furnace problems!

My family and I came back to Unalakleet only to find that our house froze. Not sure how or why, but the house thermostat read 40 degrees. It doesn’t help that it’s January and it’s freezing outside and gusting 22 mph outside. Today it’s a little warmer; 23 degrees Fahrenheit. My husband is working on getting the furnace fired back up. I really hope his “Mr. Fix-it” powers work because I’d like to move back into my own home. I hate living out of my luggage. We stayed at my in-laws last night. They are traveling down states, so we had the house to ourselves.

Other than a freezing house, everything else is fine. We got our grocery shopping done and everything shipped home. I brought some fried chicken and broccoli salad home from Anchorage, so it was a lazy dinner night.

The city water is bad again so people have been going up, left and right, to our house to get fresh well water. That is how we found out our house froze. Reuben’s friend called while he was getting water. He told Reuben that the garage was freezing and so was the house. He started a fire in the garage, which was nice. I just wish we knew what was wrong with the furnace. Wish us luck on getting heat back!
