Isn't it a little tough for you to respond unless you're reading *my* posts? So your feeble flame applies equally to you. You need a more active hobby. Anything that increses blood flow should improve the forethought and reduce the mysterious slipping.

In your case, don't settle for anything finer than 80 grit.

Cool!

Spend the money for the most efficient furnace you can. They're up to something like 98% capture of heat now. Just UFR. Plastic exhaust flues producing tepid air; so odd. My AC is 2.5T (10 SEER). Enough to get the job done at 109F (the hottest I've seen here) but slow to get a hot house down to a cool one. Just about the time the warranty ran out on the Payne condenser unit @10yrs, it died. I replaced the bad start/run cap and was back in business for $15.

My next step is attic insulation, then walls from the outside.

I insulated the floor when I had visqueen put down and the borate treatment for termites. They also drilled into the wall cavities and injected DE to kill any future bugs. I realized later that I should have had them do the whole thing since the labor was paid by extra barter money I still have. They're no longer taking barter, so that's out now.

_I_ thought you might like the bondage angle of the safety rope thing, being a girl of adventure.

If you walk around barefoot all the time, the tape will work well. If your feet are soft, the tape will eat 'em up in no time. Caveat stepper.

While looking at tape on Amazon I found a spray-on anti slip that I'm going to try first. Being diabetic I have to take superb care of my feet, I want no injuries!

OBTW, who is this protagonist?

Al Jardine, Brian Wilson and Gary Winfrey agree! Your new anthem.

You'll want to make sure your anti-slip is compatible with avocado cream.

What you really need is a series of whimsical duck stickers.

Well, if that's the case, why not just wear these, and leave them hanging on the faucets when you're done?

Especially for you, in your fave color. Methinks you'll have to do extra work on your feet anyway.

Looks interesting. Either you or your heirs should let us know how well it works. Let's hope for the former, wot?

P.S: You _do_ know to spray it on the bathtub, not your feet, right?

I thought the ultra-high efficient units were fragile? My unit now runs with a booster cap after the pump locked up. Till I added the cap I had to replace the start/run every year.

In Ohio, there is little chance of bugs...at least around here. However packs of wild Miniature Schnauzers can attack with no warning.

At the house I went with the variable speed 18 SEER unit. Electric bill dropped a couple hundred. At the beach condo, I put in a normal off-on unit. Those variable speed jobs have a hard time lasting 6 mo. in that windblown salt spray environment. No condenser unit lasts that long down there, although the new one has a composite housing and tougher coils, so maybe better.

Fragile how? My entire setback thermostat goes dead from time to time, but one or two 5 minute breaks every few years is fine by me. I'm not a fan of plug-ins which use

That's abusive! What brand unit?

Well, you can thank God they're not the vicious PeekaPoos. And at least they're in real-time, unlike my future bugs. You have it made there in Oh Aitch Ten.

My electric bill is $38/mo. The Carrier Infinity heater uses a variable speed DC motor which is stated to save lots of money over the AC model.

A house on the beach _is_ in a nasty environment. G'luck with that!

I don't read your posts, just your replies in *MY* thread.

It's a 15yo Carrier

I don't believe you.

Okay, I'll refund your money on the thread. Post your receipt ASAP.

How long before it started eating s/r caps? Is it the compressor or the quality of new s/r caps?

P.S: Did you want those coin wrappers? I owe you anyway.

It started eating caps 4 years ago, I goofed it's 17yo. I got all caps from Grainger. Hod of on wrappers, I have a line on a free coin counter at a credit union but I must join...OK with me!

What do you owe me for? -other than entertainment and that is mutual.

Forcing yourself to eat carrots and popcorn the rest of your life is certainly an adventure for a girl.
