I was doing some deep cleaning to make room for all the gifts I had bought for Christmas. I had all our outdated clothes laid out for a charity drive, as well as was putting them in piles when I noticed the dark spot in the back of our closet. I wasn’t sure what it […]

Some a/c is needed
It is now 10am and I just have three more stories to write and then I am going to take a break from the screen to rest my eyes and to do some yoga. My goal today is to be done with all of my writing work by noon so that I can go visit […]
Good at installing heat pumps
I am letting my money sit in cryptos and am hoping we get another good bull run over the next several years. I have just 65 Litecoins right now and am hoping that they will be worth something again one day. I’m just putting that money on the backburner and letting it sit till it […]
I demanded an all-home air purification system.
I had never raised my voice to my husband, and I didn’t think I ever would. My family had a firm belief that women respected the men, and treated them special. I respected my husband, and I treated him like he was special, but I felt I had the right to be treated the same […]
My brother thought I was being ridiculous.
I can’t explain why, but when we had the new air conditioning unit installed, I didn’t like how it looked. I thought it was the ugliest air conditioning unit I had ever seen. I told mom and dad they were going to need to paint it somehow cover it up. I would not bring my […]
I wanted a maintenance agreement that included free air filters and changes.
My phone was in hand and I was calling the HVAC company to ask about their maintenance and repair agreement. After the HVAC company delivered and installed my new HVAC system, I wanted to discuss the warranty and maintenance agreement with the HVAC technician. I was sure if I wanted to pay for an extended […]
My father told me I drive a hard bargain.
I didn’t want everything for free, but I knew what I wanted. I would not purchase a new HVAC system and not get any perks. I knew my ductless HVAC system required less maintenance than a tradition central HVAC system. I also knew the ductless HVAC system was more efficient than traditional HVAC systems. I […]
It was a simple repair, but it took forever.
The HVAC technician apologized for how long it took, but he wasn’t expecting a simple repair and hadn’t brought the right tools into the house with him I needed some repairs done to the furnace, but I wasn’t sure how in-depth the repairs were going to be. I called the HVAC company and asked them […]
He said he didn’t work for just one HVAC company.
I was talking to the HVAC technician last week, that always comes to our home. I saw him in the grocery store, and he was wearing the HVAC shirt for another HVAC company. I asked if he was working for someone new now, and he shook his head. He said he was a man who […]
He had his HVAC certification and went to work in a plumbing company.
My son worked hard to get where he is today. He went to HVAC technical school right after graduation from high. He worked hard to pass the HVAC course. He worked even harder to pass his certification course so he could work at the local HVAC company. He no sooner got his HVAC certification than […]
It was like walking through a wonderland.
I got home from work the other day, and I did not know what I was going to be walking into. I thought I had left the porch and the inside light on, but my house was dark. It wouldn’t be the first time I had walked out and forgotten to turn a light on. […]
