Hearing Again; MassSave; Truck

Ron’s visit to Hearing Aids Associates in Pittsfield yesterday was a success. He booked an appointment in May for a cleaning.

Aside from that, didn’t do much: one load of laundry, hung kids’ old artwork.

Today was another story.

A tech from MassSave did a thorough review of the house and unearthed some surprises.

Like the walls in the second floor are essentially cardboard. Same for the ceiling in the “office”. No wonder it’s so cold.

MassSave will not install insulation until we are able to waterproof the basement. This is difficult with a stone foundation and the crawl spaces.

We also need to have the rafters checked for mold or other hazards.

We had pizza for lunch with the Theater Department at Williams College. Very enjoyable!

I sent a signed contract and check to Barile Environmental.

We went to Bennington to pay for the truck – much less than expected – and checked in with a nearby repair shop to take care of the coil/sparkplug problem.

Dropped off DVDs at the library and picked one up.
