MONK TRYOUTS

GOT MONKS?
It's 32 degrees outside and a balmy 58 degrees inside here on Grey Eagle Drive. So we are bundled up in polar fleece and terrycloth robes, huddled by the computers...with all the equipment on, the studio is the warmest place in the house.


Turns out that our furnace crapped out AGAIN...we just spend $450 to repair it last month, but the same problem has occurred once again. The circuit board gets condensation on it and shorts out, leaving us without heat. So it's been 36 hours without heat. The house was probably at 70 degrees when it quit. By the time we got the technician out, it was down to 64 degrees. Once the problem was diagnosed, no one in the Rogue Valley had the proper circuit board in stock, so we had to get it from Portland. We are hoping that it will show up today and maybe, just maybe we'll get it installed.
We went out to breakfast this morning to warm up...helped our attitude a bit and the furnace out in the shop still works so if all else fails we can move our mattress out there with the cars and sleep tonite. The high today is only supposed to be in the 40's so we can't expect any solar gain through the windows.
Hot coffee and Irish whiskey is in order today! BURRRRRRR!
