Our Halloween gathering was being held in the basement.

All of us had all the plans for our Halloween made, & our wife was decorating, but she had the haunted room all ready for visitors when she came flying up the stairs.

I thought she was going to scream & say the basement was entirely haunted, which is what she tried every year, but this year, she was even more frightened & told myself and others this was the scariest Halloween every one of us could imagine.

She heard a noise coming from the oil furnace, & she was afraid it was going to die on us. She didn’t need to say anything more. I was already calling the Heating & A/C supplier. I wasn’t going to allow a broken oil furnace to ruin our annual Halloween gathering. The Heating & A/C serviceman said she would be at the home in about several minutes, which gave us plenty of time to have the oil furnace repaired & ready for the gathering… By the time she arrived, the oil furnace was dead in the water, & the home was cooling quickly. I had the fireplace going, however I sad it would not keep the home sizzling enough. All of us had a couple of space heating systems every one of us planned on putting in the basement, just in case, however every one of us wanted to hold off using them until every one of us found out if the Heating & A/C serviceman was going to arrive in time… When our kid got lake home from university, she asked why it was so freezing in the house, & every one of us told him the oil furnace was broken. She ran to neighborhood & picked up a gas fireplace for the basement. She said it would save us currency & it would be a great addition to the holiday mood.
