Trying to get a heater repair at peak winter

It ended up costing me twice as much money as I assumed it would be for the repair; in particular, what is stressing me out right now the most is my heating system

I thought I’d gotten everything ready for the winter season this year back in late September. I remember paying to get the house weather approved and also getting a lot of wood chopped to use for the wood stove. One of the biggest projects that needed to be completed at the time was a roof repair. We get so much snow in the winter season that it can fall far at times and cause leaking if the roof is not completely sealed. Getting the roof fixed at last was a huge relief off my mind for sure. And then I could finally move on to other things, including a window repair that I’ve been putting off for 2 years. I had to call a window and glass company to get that done and it wasn’t the easiest project for sure. It ended up costing me twice as much money as I assumed it would be for the repair; in particular, what is stressing me out right now the most is my heating system. I didn’t realize you’d be so hard to get a furnace repair in the middle of the winter, but it makes more sense the more I think about it. This is the peak season for using a heating system inside of a hole so it makes sense that the heating and cooling companies are backed up for weeks doing furnace repairs. I should have gotten my furnace servicing maintained in the Autumn season like I usually do, and if I had I would have found the issue back then and got it fixed when I could have.
