I wished I could move back home.

When I chose a school for my college education, I chose one that was as far away from home as I could get.

  • I was tired of the cold and the wind.

I didn’t care if I saw another glacier for the rest of my life. I enjoyed waking up in the morning and seeing the ocean from my dorm window, and I never thought I would tire of it. Then, one morning, I woke up and there was a storm brewing. The humidity was stifling, and the air conditioning wasn’t working properly. I had been in school for less than a month, and I was already feeling like I had made a mistake moving here. I couldn’t change schools during the first semester because I was afraid my parents would disown me. They put a lot of money into paying for me to go to school here. I’m just wishing I could be anywhere but here when there isn’t any air conditioning. If I could move back home, I wouldn’t need to worry about air conditioning in September. Most of the summer, my parents don’t have the air conditioning on. Maybe not needing all that heat in the summer will make me change my mind about moving back home. To be honest, I think some of my need to move back home is mostly out of homesickness and has nothing to do with the lack of air conditioning. That is just an excuse to get my parents to let me come back home, but I’m sure it won’t work. They told me that once I made my choice, there was no turning back.

I like having the ductless AC in the garage

Ductless AC units are the type of equipment that is not connected to your home heating and ventilation system. A ductless AC unit is more complex than a window AC unit. A ductless air conditioner can be placed anywhere in the house. It can be placed on a wall, ceiling, in the kitchen, or a bedroom. It is just as versatile as it is energy efficient and economically friendly. Ductless AC units are a bit more complicated to install. I used a professional installation service to put my ductless AC unit in their garage. I found that ductless AC unit on a website and I found out that the cost to install the machine was not very much money. The installation for the ductless AC unit took a couple of hours, but the guy that performed the service was very knowledgeable, friendly, and hard-working. The whole time he was at the house, he never stopped to take a break even one time. I have a lot of admiration for people like that. I thought about becoming an HVAC technician a long time ago. I decided to go into the plumbing business instead. I like working in this area, but I often think that I would have been happier in a different career. It’s too late to change my career now. I am already starting to think about retirement. That’s one of the reasons why I wanted to buy the ductless AC unit for the garage. Now I can go out there and watch all of the games and relax and smoke a cigar without anyone at all complaining.

The new house is going to be really fantastic when it's finished

My wife and I decided to have a house built after we couldn’t decide on a place in the city.

We looked all over the suburbs for the right house and there seemed to be something wrong with every single selection.

I could sell that the realtor was getting frustrated with us after showing us the 50th house, condo, and apartment. When my wife and I decided to build our own dream palace, the realtor thought it was a great idea. Both of us knew that we could get exactly what we wanted if we built our own home. We wanted all of the bedrooms upstairs, including the master bedroom. We wanted a huge game room downstairs and these options were not regularly available in places that were already built. We wanted a fireplace in the living room and another fireplace in the master bedroom above the area where the living room was located. Getting an architect was the best idea that either one of us ever had. The new house is going to be fantastic when it’s finished in a couple of months. The new house will have a smart thermostat and other features that are connected to the system like smart lights, smart alarms, and smart door locks. We have a state of the art air filtration system installed. This will cut back on any problems if there are forest fires. Forest fires happen frequently every single summer. Adding the air filtration system now means never having to worry in the future. When the house is finally done, I know that both of us are going to be very happy and satisfied with the final results.

The heated pool was a nice touch for the weekend

My wife wanted everyone to meet at a hotel for the weekend so we could all see each other before the last of our children went off to college.

  • She is crazy sentimental like that and it’s hard for her to admit that the last baby is leaving the nest.

We got three hotel rooms that were adjacent to each other. One hotel room was for my son and his wife. Another room was for my two grown sons who are18 and 20. I didn’t think they would have an issue sharing a room. They have been sharing a room for the past ten years. We got rooms at a four star hotel and resort. The place had two pools and a bar and plenty of activities for the family. The kids were pretty happy about the heated pool. It was called that weekend and a little rainy, but the fact that the pool was heated made everything okay. We spent most of our day in the heated pool on saturday. We ordered room service straight to the pool and it was almost like the kids were young again. My wife and I are sure going to miss them now that all of them are out of the house and in college. I doubt any of them will ever come back to the house to live with us again. They are all very independent and looking forward to starting a life of their own. We did a great job, but I still hope they come home for the holidays.

a/c care plan

The radiators were all rusty and old and dented

One of my family members passed away and left a house to my wife and I. The house wasn’t in the best of shape. My aunt had not lived in the place for about 10 years. She spent a long time in the nursing home and no one bothered to take care of the house during that time. The first time my wife and I had the opportunity to look at the house, we made a list of all the repairs that needed to be made before the house could be rented or sold. I did not see the two of us moving in to the property, but it definitely had some character. We had to replace all of the plumbing fixtures and the flooring needed to be cleaned and sanitized. All of the radiators for the heater were rusty, old, and dented. I contacted one of my friends that works for a commercial heating company and I asked him if he could get me a good price on new radiators for the house. He came out and took measurements free of charge. He also got me a 20% friends and family discount on all of the parts. I appreciated his help a great deal. I installed all of the heating radiators on my own and they looked a lot better than the rusty and broken radiators that were previously in the house. After we updated the carpet and fixed a hole in the roof, the house was good enough to rent for an extra income. We found a young couple that was willing to pay $500 a month.

I had to find a table under the AC

I stayed in a hotel a couple of weeks ago.

The hotel was downtown by the convention center.

I met a man that I met online. Both of us got separate rooms at the hotel. My room was on the 7th floor. His room was on the 5th floor. We booked at separate times and I thought that it was a little better if our rooms weren’t even on the same floor. After all, I didn’t know if this guy was going to turn out to be a creeper. We met in the bar at the hotel room. It was a nice bar with plenty of places to sit. There was good lighting so I could see his face. I could tell that the picture online was definitely of a younger version of this guy, but I didn’t mind. It’s not as if I used an everyday picture of myself either. We sat down at a table and started talking about our lives and all of our kids and things like that. I started having a hot flash while we were discussing everything. The hot flash came out of nowhere, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I started sweating and I immediately felt hot and flushed. I asked the waiter if we could move to a different seat. I really wanted to be somewhere under an air conditioner vent. We looked for a table that was under an air conditioner vent. The waiter moved us and all of our food to the new table. I thanked the waiter by slipping him a couple of bucks. I wanted the date to go well and being hot and uncomfortable was not going to start us at a good place.

My leg shattered after the fall

My coworker Jen plus I were finally working on an A/C repair when I toppled off the roof plus broke my leg.

I should have been much more careful on the roof.

I was only on the second story plus I was moving more suddenly than normal. I undoubtedly wasn’t too careful so the accident is truly my fault. Still, the ankle was badly disfigured plus broken when I fell… Jen had to take myself and others to the emergency room. It looked like the broken bones in my leg were trying to push out through my skin. The pain was severe. Every one of us didn’t have any Tylenol or Ibuprofen plus Jen and I were finally working on a condo that no one lived in. There was no resident to ask for an aleve. When Jen and I got to the hospital emergency room, the medical professional gave Jen a hard time. He didn’t believe any personal information about myself and others plus she acted love Jen should have known everything. I told her that Jen was my coworker plus not my lover. The medical pro had an attitude plus I actually did too. I was hurting so much plus she was giving Jen a hard time when he was just as upset plus upset as I was. My boss came to the ER while I was waiting for the X-ray results. He told myself and Jen that we were going to have to go back to finish with the A/C repair after Jen plus I were done at the emergency room. Of course, it was impossible for myself and Jen to go back to the A/C repair after the medical pro determined that I had a compound fracture of my leg

Heating maintenance

The new furnace can heat a pool

My partner Tom plus I bought a new condo with an inground pool. When the two of us bought the house, the first thing Tom talked about was adding a heater to the pool. Every one of us had a lot of things going on during that first month plus Tom never got around to getting a quote from the heating or pool businesses. I was at job one afternoon when my partner called me; Tom said that she sent myself and others a message to my job address. The text turned out to be a quote that Tom had gotten from a business in town that was willing to install the pool heater. I didn’t realize that Tom was planning to do the heating job separate from me. She clearly had her mind set that the pool was going to have heat. I really believe that I should not argue with Tom when she has a system in her mind. I told her that she should check around to see if there was a cheap business to do the work. Tom told myself and others that she wanted to hire the contractor that gave her the estimate. He was the one that Tom liked. The cost for heating the pool plus affixing everything to the furnace was not as steep as I anticipated. Heating the pool was actually less money than adding a more modern furnace to the house. I was cheerful that Tom went ahead plus got the quote after I saw how cheaply the two of us could complete the work. Now Tom and I have a pool with heat that the two of us can use all Winter season season.

Heating and Air Conditioning repairs require repair plans

The average price of an Heating and Air Conditioning repair is around 200 or so.

That cost can be higher in the big city plus areas where the proper cost of items is higher.

Many people don’t have $200 or so in their bank account for such an emergency. When the heating plus A/C plan breaks down, it is generally an emergency. At the heating plus A/C Corporation where I work, the owner works with everyone so they can have emergency services completed when they are needed. The owner encourages all of the customers to get a repair plan. The repair system includes half price fees on all of the repairs. All labor is at 50 percent off. All of the parts are still properly priced, however the savings on labor is a sizable reason to get the repair agreement. My partner Jen plus I have a repair system on our Heating and Air Conditioning unit. Every year a heating plus A/C Corporation tech comes to check plus tune up the machine. They checked the mechanical plus electrical panels plus they checked the wiring plus all of the belts. The tune-up repair is supposed to alleviate the need for an emergency repair during the Winter season or summer time weeks. When the plan is tuned up in time, there should never be any need for an emergency repair call. In the event that something does happen, the labor fees are 50 percent off plus the owner is willing to do the job with anyone to set up a payment system in the event of an emergency. I guess that is one huge reason why everyone in town respects the owner.

HVAC tune-up

The hotel room had such a nice heater

My partner Jo plus myself were on our way home from her parents condo plus the two of us got stuck in traffic in the city. The six hour traffic jam caused major troubles plus both of us were exhausted before the two of us were halfway to our home. Jo decided to stop at a hotel for a couple of hours of rest. Even if Jo only slept until 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon, at least the two of us were able to rest our eyes plus our body in a nice, comfy position instead of in the front seat of the car. Jo checked into the hotel around 11:00 p.m. The hotel room had wash sheets plus an overheated heater. I turned on the oil furnace plus put the temperature at 70°. It warmed up inside of the hotel room quickly. Jo plus I slept until 4:30. The sunlight was just starting to show however it was still so dark outside. Jo had enough rest to drive the rest of the way back modern home plus our early beginning made it possible for us to completely miss most of the afternoon town traffic jam. When the two of us finally got a modern home for a 2-hour apartment, both of us laid down plus fed the dog plus took a nice nap for a couple of hours. Every one of us really should have planned for that extra time. Next time the two of us go to see her mom plus dad, I’m going to make sure that Jo and I can stay in a hotel so the two of us never have to recognize the rush. I guess that the drive would have been much better if the two of us were not feeling so rushed.
