The 3rd heating zone is our master bedroom. I installed the smart thermostat in there back on November 30th, but didn’t have time to feed the wire through the wall until this past weekend. Since you have already read all about our other 2 smart thermostats, I’ll keep this post very short.
This past November I decided to relax by coloring with crayons. I have been keeping an ear open to the recent trend of adult coloring books, but wanted to make my own designs to color in. I found a book of thick art paper in the girl cave, grabbed my circle templates [same ones I use for stained glass and art painting], a sharpie, and a ruler and set to work.
Last May I started de-mousing the foundation around our front stoop with hardware cloth. I only got a bit of the right side done. This past weekend I stapled hardware cloth around most of the front stoop in an attempt to keep ahead of them!
This past May I spent about 6 weeks completely cleaning and overhauling the girl cave. I removed 2 large trash bags of crap, and moved a bunch of stuff to the basement for storage. I didn’t take any “before” pictures, because, well, I guess since I wasn’t really in a blogging mood I also wasn’t thinking ahead to “before” pictures.
Just about a year ago I posted about my first stained glass mobiles, and mentioned that I’d made 2 more that same week and would post about them soon. Well, a year later, and here we go!
This past August I decided to craft 2 stained glass nautical stars. I had promised a coworker I’d make her a star, and she really likes nautical stars, so instead of my usual star pattern I found a new one online. I decided to make 2 stars, one for her and one for me.
Today after work I was running around doing chores and unpacking boxes into assorted Christmas gift piles. While I was walking through the kitchen to the basement I noticed Darwin was perched in front of the fridge, staring intently underneath it.
This is my final Hawaii 2019 post. On our last night in Maui, we were excited to find ourselves front and center for the 7th Annual Lahainatown Classic Car Show!
After installing the living room smart thermostat, and seeing how well it worked, and how cool it was to access it from our phones, we bought 2 more Geo Lux: one for the dining room/girl cave zone and one for the bedroom zone.
Last month, when we finally turned our heat on for the year, we realized our living room thermostat had broken. The buttons did nothing. Jim suggested that instead of replacing it, we try a smart thermostat, so we could control and check our heat from our Android phones and the internet. Cool!
