Heating

Summer is long over, and I know this because I've had to work out how to operate the thermostat.  I could probably have found out by trial and error, but much easier to find the instruction manual online!  I'm so clueless that until this week I didn't even know that the cover of the thermostat opened to reveal the control panel.  But now I'm living in a house rather than an apartment, it will be interesting to see just how much my heating bills will increase by.  But at least the heating is effective, which is more than can be said for my last place.  I don't think I'm adventurous enough to try using the real fireplace here, but we shall see!
