I have shown houses that have radiant heat underneath the tiles, at the time some builders put that in it was a smart idea...

I usually have some kind of slipper on anyway. I have been wanting hardwood floors for sooo long. I know I shouldn't even be thinking about it right now with Rick out of work, but I'm seriously looking at them now.

I have my friends little 2 lb 14 oz Yorkie and even though she is suppose to be pad trained, she has gone a few times on my carpet. I'm not going to have that. I know it's a very small spot, but I don't like pee in my carpet....does anyone????...LOLOL

I'm not sure what you call our heat, but it is electric and has a heat pump. If you put your hands over the registers, it feels cool. My Mom is always cold when she comes out so she always has a sweater. I'm wanting Rick to check out the wood furnaces that you keep outside and hook up to the blower unit (I think) so the heat will come through all the registers. Right now, with our fireplace insert, the family room gets really warm and the back half (on the other side of the thermostat) stays cooler.

We need to figure out something, but getting his butt motivated is hard. I always have to do everything! Guess I'd better quit this post or it will turn into a vent...LOL
