I have always been afraid of using space heaters in our house, and now, I definitely have a reason to be. Our neighbors house, right next to ours, just burnt down yesterday because of a space heater. I don’t like to talk bad about people, but our neighbors were not the kind of people that… Continue reading The house next to ours just burnt down because of a space heater

My husband and I moved way up north about fifteen years ago. We were both born down south, and we never pictured ourselves becoming northerners, but here we are. I cannot believe that we have lived here for so long. It took us so long to get used to the cold weather up here, but… Continue reading We keep our house pretty cool because we work outside all day long

I never pictured myself being single as an adult. Just like most girls, I dreamed of growing up and getting married. I actually wanted to get married right out of college. Unfortunately, that did not happen for me. It has been hard being single, but I am trying to enjoy the freedom of it as… Continue reading My best friend just got a fireplace installed in her living room

My husband is a sweetheart. He is really good at listening to what I say even if I don’t realize it. Sometimes, I don’t think that he is listening, but I find out later that he really is. I have hinted here and there that I wanted a fireplace for our house, and I did… Continue reading I only have one thing to say about my new fireplace

My husband and I recently moved into a new house. It is so different from any house that we have ever lived in before. The main difference is the fact that it is three stories tall. We have only ever lived in ranch style homes. It is strange having to go up a set of… Continue reading The attic was so warm that we had to buy an air conditioner for it

Our basement is almost always chilly. I know that it is because heat rises, but I just hate that it is cold down there because that is where the kids usually play. I love that they can have an entire basement worth of space to play in. It is really nice for them. They just… Continue reading I bought a new heater for the basement

My husband, Vincent, and I are living in a camper right now. I know that it does not sound like a good plan, but it is only temporary. We just bought a beautiful piece of property about ten miles from where I grew up. We plan on building our dream home on this property. We… Continue reading Campers are not easy to heat

My husband and I have been having trouble with our furnace for a couple of years now, and I was just sick of it. My husband replaced a few parts on it within two years, and it had been working for us but not very well. I came home from work many times to a… Continue reading I bought a brand new furnace

My feet are always cold! I can remember as a little girl telling my mom that my feet were cold, and she would have me sit by the fireplace to warm up my feet after playing outside or in the cold barn. I have never grown out of having cold feet. It seems like my… Continue reading Warming my Feet

Driving a school bus for a living can be quite challenging at times and rewarding at others. I truly love my job, and I wouldn’t trade it for any other, but there are days that are a bit more difficult than others. Last week, I had several of those more difficult days. The first thing… Continue reading A Hot School Bus

I think, just about everyone knows one of those people that is always cold. I am that person. Ever since I was a child, I have always been the cold one. When everyone else busts out their shorts and t-shirts for the spring/summer, I am still bundled up in a few layers. My mom always… Continue reading Loving My AC
