The flattop grill arrived two days early.

No worries there.  Always good to have it arrive early.  But, there isn't a good shot at getting it together solo.  I had to get the heavy duty appliance dolly to move it from the front porch to the back.  Way to heavy.  Even that was a trick.  Just getting it up, then leaning it back onto the cart was... some effort.

I am checking about help on some things.  Looks like, perhaps, tonight or tomorrow morning.  Get the flattop going, then perhaps begin figuring out the furnace.  Yes.  That should help a lot.  A lot of dust in there, so it will never be perfect without pulling it and redoing things.  But... it... will help, for now.  Oh, and I may see if he might be interested in adding a humidifier to the unit, or even consider helping install a new unit later this year... say before fall?  It might or might not be something he would be willing to do.  This would give him time to review the technicals, and see if this might be doable for him, or not.

I think, with central air, that would absolutely have to be done by a pro.  It would be a fresh, first, installation.  Unlike the furnace, which would be a replacement.  I could pay him a hefty fee, and still save a ton buying the unit and helping.  Perhaps.  I may get a quote, however, just to make sure.  And, let them know, I am looking at doing it myself.  See if they wouldn't come down some.

Risk?  Reward.  Risk is what it is, as is reward.

I did hit the dishes again.  Not sure that will be enough.  Will find out in an hour or so.  That is the majority of the remaining dishes.  Still some more, but bigger items.  Need to hit the freezertop.  When I sliced the beef yesterday, a lot of blood ran.  I cleaned, but not enough.  I'll get that tonight, so I can do some food things tomorrow.

The sun came out!  Earlier.  I just went to look out and enjoy and...  Clouds closed back in, plus it started snowing again.  Oh well.  I did get to see the sun for just a spot today.  Yes, yes that helps a good deal.

I am hoping to finish dishes.  Oh, and I need to put the wash to going.  Then get that dried yet tonight.  I am thinking a bit more of the roast, sliced thinly, with a twice baked potato.  Yeah.  Any other work?  Maybe to mop the bathroom and bathroom hallway.  That would be good.
