Lasts

Today was spent getting last minute things done before the husband leaves for overseas.
Meaning the husband mowed the lawn for the last time, because well we know how I feel about mowing grass. He checked on the state of the attic. Good to know that it’s clean and well insulated unlike the way we found the rest of the house.
Along with doing other miscellaneous things around the house to get it ready for winter and his departure he went over some last minute instructions for me.
What you ask, well how to run the heat in the house for one. I mean that will be really good to know how to use in a few weeks here. We have a heat pump and then a furnace for emergency heat. I’m thinking we should be using the furnace all of the time once it gets cold but we will try this whole heat pump thing first.
Second we went over hi to set up the generator if I was to need it. Let’s put it this way I currently know how to do it but in 3, 4, 8 weeks from now I’m sure I’ll have no clue. But, I have a neighbor and a friend right down the street one of them will be getting the call of its needed.
Finally, the husband and I went out for “last meal” with some friends. It’s not his true last meal but pretty much. As he is attending a concert tomorrow night, Judas Priest, and then leaves Sunday morning. So, pretty much last meal before eating chow hall food for the next 2 months.
So as you can see today was a day filled with lasts for a while.
Happy Friday!
