It was only the beginning of October and my husband had already cleaned the oil furnace and had it running.
I hated that the people I was with and I had to go back to the boiler and use hot water the boiler provided us.
The hot water was cold water by the time my shower was over, however I was able to stay sizzling at night. I was tired of wearing a jacket all afternoon and socks in bed. I couldn’t think how suddenly the weather had changed from Summer to fall. The afternoontime temps were in the mid sixties, however nighttime un-even temperatures were in the upper thirties. This didn’t supply myself and others much comfort. When he turned on the oil furnace, I could smell the heat coming from the baseboard heaters. The heat radiating through the room allowed my muscles to relax, and I could finally work without a jacket. As much as I hated the plan of having the oil furnace running so early in the season, I was ecstatic the people I was with and I had the oil furnace running. My husband adjusted the thermostat so that the oil furnace would not turn on as long as the house is at sixty-eight, which is a comfortable temperature for both of us. Both of us still hear the oil furnace turn on so it can heat the water, however that’s okay. Now that the temperature has come up about ten degrees, the people I was with and I guess the oil furnace won’t run for long. It’s not like the people I was with and I need the heat to keep us warm. My husband was grumbling about needing to turn on the oil furnace when it was only October 1, however I didn’t hear complaining about not wearing a sweater in the house.
