Beach vacations become normal days.

I remember how, as a kid, I looked forward to summer vacations.

  • School was out, we were bored, and anything would have made us happy.

Going to the beach was a way to get away from the house and do something fun. I never thought about how uncomfortable it could be for my parents. We didn’t have air conditioning in the beach house we rented. At that time, I didn’t think about how that may have been because they couldn’t afford a beach house with air conditioning. I wasn’t aware of how it affected my mother’s breathing, or my dad’s heart. After five years of going to the same beach during the summer, we had to stay home. Mom and dad had things happen at the house that didn’t give them enough money to be able to afford to rent the beach house. It was just the one year, but it meant there were a lot of changes in the way the beach house. Over that year, the beach house had air conditioning installed. Actually every house on the beach now had air conditioning. I could see the thrill on mom’s face when she realized we had air conditioning, and that thrill always stayed with me. When I got older, I began to realize how the lack of air conditioning affected mom and dad. They both have lung problems and it must have been affecting them even back then. They always had air conditioning in our home, but being kids, we were very selfish and didn’t care if we had air conditioning, as long as we could get away from home.

You need to check out the beach during the fall.

One of the things that attracts tourists to the south, are the beaches.

Living in the south, I don’t really see the big draw.

The sun is hot and it really isn’t all that fun. If I want to go out and get a tan, I can do that in my back yard. I also have a heated pool so I can swim whenever I want. Tourists crowd the beaches and there isn’t any room to move. Instead of fighting the crowds and spending time on the beach, I prefer to be home in the air conditioning. The tourists probably have a hotel to go back to. The hotels are all air conditioned. I can’t imagine having to vacation with a bunch of kids. Being locked in a hotel room when it is raining, must be horrible. The only saving grace would be the air conditioning. I prefer to go to the beach during the fall. I can put on a warm sweater and sneakers in the morning. The ocean is gorgeous in the fall, with its bold greys and puffy white clouds. The water is a bit too cold to do any swimming, but that is the reason I got the heated pool. The need for air conditioning in my home is behind me for a while. I can safely turn it off and call the HVAC company. I am saving money on my energy bills for a couple of months. I love the fall and winter, but when in the south, it doesn’t last long enough. It still doesn’t give me any reason to want to move.

Thanksgiving is a season of more than giving thanks.

Thanksgiving was just around the corner and I was thrilled.

When you live in the southeast, Thanksgiving becomes more than a season of giving thanks.

Thanksgiving is also the usher of cooler temperatures and the time to turn off the air conditioning unit. Many people had probably already had their air conditioning units turned down, or even off, but they may have not yet taken the time to call the HVAC company and have the AC unit inspected and cleaned. I look at Thanksgiving as that time of year. I also see Thanksgiving as the season for opening doors and letting Mother Nature into the house. You don’t need to have air conditioning during the next couple months. The doors are open and fresh air comes into the house. Nature’s air conditioning and air freshening are right where you need it. You can hear the hum and music of nature instead of the hum of the air conditioning unit. You see men and women in their winter garb. Boots and ugly Christmas sweaters are suddenly seen in abundance. No one can understand the amount of joy southerners feel during the holidays, unless you are a true southerner. I look forward to pulling out my soft sweaters and those boots I love with my outfits. It is a nice break from the flip flops and tank tops that I wear most days, unless I am at work. My suits are more comfortable now, since I’m not getting sweaty just from my trip from the car into the office. Thanksgiving is for giving thanks for the reprieve from summer and the air conditioning..

I could finally leave the door open.

Living in the southernmost part of the United tSates, is usually a state of heat every day. If you have goosebumps at any time, you savor the feeling. A lot of older people who live here say that we have three seasons. The first season is hot, the second is hotter, and the third season is so hot that I could suffocate. Without air conditioning, I don’t think the population here would be anywhere near as large as it is. I like the first season when it is actually cool enough that I can turn off the air conditioner. For those few precious weeks, I don’t have the air conditioning running full blast, or need to depend on the air vents being well placed to keep me comfortable. I prefer this season so much. I can get my air conditioning cleaned and ready for the next time I turn it on. I can relax and feel the breeze come through my open door and windows. The screens keep the mosquitoes and other pests outside, while allowing the cool air to come into the house. This season doesn’t happen often, and it doesn’t last long, so I savor every moment of it. Normally my dog would be taking up residence on one of the air vents. I suppose she needs the air conditioning every bit as much as I need it, but it proposes another problem. Her hair is flying through the air. Once we have those weeks when we don’t need AC, I notice that she has more spunk and she is more lively. I think she looks forward to the odd weeks when we can let the outside in, just as much as I do.

I had a really difficult customer

Everyone at task knows that we aren’t supposed to use marijuana, but almost everyone does! We’re only about ten minutes from a state that allows recreational cannabis.

My boss knows that we use marijuana and the only thing he has ever said was do not work under the influence.

I totally respect that rule and I have never used any cannabis products at work. That is why the story is so ironic. I went to repair an oil furnace and the purchaser was acting particularly strange. I tried to avoid the lady, because she kept looking at me because I had a fifth eye or an extra arm. I inspected the oil furnace and fixed the problem. When I was done, I presented the purchaser with an invoice for the oil furnace repair. She told me that it was too much money and she claimed that I was trying to jack up the prices. I offered to supply the lady 10% off and she wasn’t cheerful. I told her that I would adjust the price, but she could call our boss to discuss the issue. When I came to task the next day, our boss pulled me into the office. He told me that he had to fire me. The lady called the corporate office and told them that I was cursing and swearing and I smelled like cannabis. The corporate office told our boss that I had to be drug diagnosed! Both of us knew that I wasn’t going to pass the test, so he gave me an opportunity to resign first instead. I wasn’t doing anything wrong, but the complaint still caused me to lose my job.

When I came to work the next afternoon, my boss pulled me into the office. He told me that he had to fire me.

Both of us knew that I wasn’t going to pass the test, so he provided myself and others an opportunity to resign first instead. I wasn’t doing anything wrong, but the complaint still caused me to lose our task.

I am getting a new indoor air purifier

My dust sensitivities have been absolutely dreadful this year! I suppose it’s time to buy an indoor whole house air purifier for the house.

I talked to my doctor about an indoor whole house air purifier and he told me that it would truly help.

An indoor whole house air purifier can help eliminate a lot of allergens, germs, dust, dander and aromas that lurk in the air, but these pollutants can cause irritating side effects enjoy sneezing, coughing and watery eyes. I’ve been suffering a lot lately, and my neighbor got a second dog a couple of weeks ago, and I suppose it is affecting our dust sensitivities. We live right next to each other so it makes sense that some of our HVAC duct is shared. I tried to get the condo staff to spend money for a whole- house air purifier, but they wouldn’t admit that the shared HVAC duct might be a problem. They told me that they cannot control the indoor pollutants and they cannot buy me an whole- house air purifier or they will have to start doing that for every renter that has indoor dust sensitivities. I wish they would have bought one, but it’s not going to stop me from getting what I want. I found the perfect indoor whole-lake house air purifier for $349 online. It has a removable air filter with HEPA technology and it eliminates 99.99% of harmful indoor pollutants. I expect the machine to arrive on Sunday of next week. I cannot wait to see if it works as great as the reviews online show, but lots of people are cheerful with the whole-lake house air purifier. It has five stars in addition to tons of satisfied client reviews.
