Nighttime Duties

Well, I don’t think Jim is quite as enamored with the winter snow as he was a mere few hours ago.  I was up feeding the girls around 4 a.m., and noticed that it was very chilly in the house.  After I was done, I tried to adjust the thermostat, and wasn’t noticing any difference.  So I wake up Jim, and he concludes that the power vent must be blocked by drifted snow.  So the poor guy trudges outside in 14 degree weather to shovel out from around the vent.  Fortunately, that seems to have done the trick, and the house is slowly warming up.  I guess both Jim and I had to sacrifice sleep for the good of the family tonight…and boy, am I glad I wasn’t the one outside!
