Blower motor for the main floor air handler is presently dead.  Noticed a message on the "smart" thermostat on Saturday.  Tech came yesterday - board on the motor fried.  Had to wait until today to get the part.  Soooo tired of "smart" things.  It's a furnace blower motor...like why does EVERYTHING need a stupid electronic chip?!   Needless to say, we had no AC yesterday and have no heat this morning until the HVAC guy arrives with the new one in hand.  I have a little oil filled radiator style heater in my office with me.  My doggo is laying near it.  She runs pretty warm typically, but clearly even she's finding it a bit less than optimal since our windy cold front has rolled in.

if it is any consolation, my boy reported water under the sink today. 
it turns out the garbage disposal - a badger 500 (1/2 horsepower) that i put in about 7-8 years ago, has decided to start leaking.   good thing i had the foresight to put cleaning totes (in which i put all the cleaning supplies and so on) under the sink in case i did have any water leaks, as they caught the water dripping and none was able to damage the wood cabinet.
it turns out that badgers are a lower name brand of InSinkErator, the main difference between badger and InSinkErator being the badger is a lower price and with a galvanized chamber (which eventually rusts and then leaks) instead of a stainless steel one.
replacement is a moen 3/4 horsepower "Host Series EX75C" which has a 10 year warranty and a stainless chamber.   price difference between this and another badger 500 - about $30.  i get to swap them out tonight when i get home from doing a swing shift, yay!
