furnace needs to be replaced

I'm still smarting a bit from the cost, but it will be installed tomorrow and will be more energy efficient. The old one lasted more than 30 years, so it's had a good run.

How the nice repair people are going to get the old one out and put the new one in should be quite a scene. It's in a small, narrow closet, and my condo is on the fifth floor. Furniture will have to be moved out of the way for a start.

Hopefully, what I'm going to have to spend on it will be reimbursed by my tax return and company bonus, so it's only a temporary wound.

In other news, Lyra is a smidgen more alert today, and I had a cleaning frenzy that resulted in culling the contents of two lateral file drawers, a desk cupboard, three book cases, and a CD tower. I'm sure it's the acupuncture. The cleaning urge has regularly occurred the day of or the day after a needle session.
