Looking towards winter on an 80 degree day

This morning I am waiting patiently for... our furnace people! That's right, hopefully this time tomorrow we will have working heat. Not that (as Clint pointed out) I will allow him to turn it on until we can see our breaths in the house, but it'll make these chilly mornings a little more bearable knowing they're optional. I'm imagining some grumbling under their breaths as they realize they have to carry it down the trap door in our floor, or a few choice words when they have to shimmy on their bellies to vent it out behind, saving the wall for the tankless water heater that will someday go there- but it's a small price to pay (well, maybe not literally) to get some 93% efficiency, built in humidifier heat in this house for our impending hibernation with baby.
