Sars Cov 2 … the grinder continues to eat away at resources and humanity.

Just finished throwing away expired items from our shelter. We're donating the rest to a food bank, then we'll restock at the new house with a better rotation system in place so stuff doesn't expire.

We'll also be dumping a bunch of our stored water. Since the well system out there is connected to the backup generator, I won't stockpile as much water as I have been, but I will still keep some in reserve.

According to our inspector, the place needs a new furnace, AC unit, and fireplace flue. That gives us some good negotiating power to purchase it for even less than we initially offered.

Here's where I need some advice from savvy GLP-ers. We'll have the choice of putting in an electric furnace or propane furnace. We have a 500 gallon propane tank on the property that runs the backup generator and feeds the current furnace. I'd like to go all electric on the furnace so the propane can just be filled and sit there for power loss events, but I don't know if electric furnaces have gotten as efficient as gas furnaces yet and I don't want to kill our electric bill.

Any advice on that?

If it is a central AC system, why not put the same money into a heat pump that will provide both heat and air conditioning?

I'm sure you're right, but most KFC customers would rather eat an actual vegan than eat a vegan chicken nugget.

Cluster Cluster fuuuuuuuck

Really is amazing..
In a horror movie kinda way.

Heat pumps are worthless in brutal winters.

Out of milk bread and toilet paper.

She said everyone was panic buying even worse than last year.

The normies are Wiggins out again.

it looks like more of a supply issue than panic buying

Our winter electric bill is about half of our summer electric bill. I did not like it the one time we had a heat pump; it never felt warm.

Had a propane tank twice. And while it didn't need filling often, it is a large sum at once.

It always needed filled right before payday, too! But...big difference. I was a single mom at the time. I was almost always broke back then.

Always broke now...

Stay the Course...

For sure! We were literally counting pennies at the end of some months.

<<<<waves at TB from under the bed. shhhhhhh

I hear that! Still renting. Can't decide if we want to move to my daughter's and start all over or stay here. Houses are hellish expensive, too. Even the really old, fixer uppers. Maybe I should buy a tent.
