I thought I heard rain.

I could only imagine the mess I would have in my condo if the pipes froze

I was startled awake Last yearby the sound of thunder. It sounded like the thunder, however it was winter, and there were stars out, and the skies were calm. It could not have been thunder, however that was what I thought. I could recognize the condo vibrate, and a loud rolling sound went through the house. I laid back down, and thought I was dreaming, when I heard it again. I got up and called the Heating and Air Conditioning business and told them there was something wrong with the furnace. I was going to get my youngsters out of the house, and the two of us would return when he figured out why the furnace sounded like a Summer thunderstorm. The next morning, I got a iphone call from the Heating and Air Conditioning business. The business who had tested my furnace told myself and others he had found a problem with the igniter. There was a lot of oil seeping in, and when the igniter lit, the oil was basically exploding, then he had to order a part, and he had turned the furnace off. I had to go home, because without the furnace, my pipes were going to freeze. I turned the faucets on so water would trickle out, and went back to my mom’s house. I hoped the Heating and Air Conditioning tech would have those parts the next morning, as he promised. I called the Heating and Air Conditioning business to make sure they could have the parts for the furnace the morning, and she said yes. I could only imagine the mess I would have in my condo if the pipes froze. I would need to call the homeowner’s insurance business instead of the Heating and Air Conditioning business.
