Last spring, I decided to thoroughly clean my home from top to bottom.

I laundered all of the linens, organized the closets, washed the windows and cleaned everything from the overhead light fixtures to behind furniture. Multiple times, I found a bee flying around the room. I carefully captured the bee and released it outside. I couldn’t figure out where they were coming from. It wasn’t until I started up the air conditioner for the first time that I realized the bees had built their nest inside the ductwork. When the rush of cool air hit the bees, they poured from the supply vents into the house. There were a lot of them, and they were extremely angry. We needed to vacate the house. I immediately called my HVAC contractor and explained the problem. He told me that bees are a protected species and that I’d need to contact a professional bee removal company. While the bee company was very good about arriving quickly and handling the problem, this resulted in some damage to my walls, ceilings and ductwork. I then had no choice but to hire the HVAC contractor to repair, clean and seal the duct system. The bees had left behind a great deal of debris inside the pipes that would potentially block airflow and cause issues with indoor air quality. All of these many services added up to a great deal of time, stress and expense. We were unable to run the air conditioner until the bee problems were taken care of. The house was extremely overheated the whole time.

I have a sizable shed located in my backyard that I use as my home gym. The cement floor, eight-foot ceiling and square footage are ideal. There is a window located at each end of the shed that is helpful to provide fresh air during milder weather. I like to workout first thing in the morning when possible. I spend approximately an hour on a combination of stretching, strength training and high-impact aerobics. I have an incline bench, mini trampoline, battle ropes, free weights, yoga mat, jump rope, medicine ball and a stationary bike. The only problem I had with the space was the lack of temperature control. For a while, I got by with an electric space heater in the winter and a window air conditioner in the summer. I’d need to go out to the shed, start up the portable heater or cooling unit and then wait about an hour before I could begin my exercises. On especially hot or cold mornings, the heater and air conditioner struggled to keep up with demand. I’d try to workout as early as possible during the summer to avoid the heat of the day. During the winter, I’d wait for the temperature to warm up before working out. I finally decided to make an improvement. I had a ductless heat pump permanently installed to handle year round temperature control. The system consists of a compact outdoor compressor and a slim profile indoor air handler. The air handlers is mounted up high on the wall and provides both heating and cooling capacity. I’m able to switch from heating to cooling, raise and lower temperature, adjust fan speed and even target the direction of airflow from an app on my phone.

I called our mom last week, because I needed someone to vent to; No matter what I did, I was always put last on our wifey’s list.

yesterday I needed the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C contractor to come to the home and labor on the furnace, however there was no 1 available. I called our wifey to see if there was something she could do to get the furnace repaired, and she told me I had to wait until she got lake house and she would look at it. She worked at the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C company and I could not understand why she could not handle the situation instantly. Her dad owned the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C company and I thought he would want to take care of his family before other people. I was so angry that I was shaking. When she got lake house that evening, she talked to me love I was a customer. She asked what was wrong with the furnace, and I just looked at her. She was the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C contractor, and she should occasion up on the odd noises and lack of airflow. I shouldn’t need to tell her. She shook her head and went to the basement. She yelled upstairs and asked if I would bring her tools in front the repair van, however I pretended I didn’t hear her. She grumbled when she came upstairs and got her tools, then grumbled when she went back downstairs to the furnace. An hour later, she had the furnace fixed and came back upstairs. She cuddled the baby and asked if I had breakfast ready?

When I called the owner of the new home I lived in, it was to tell him the heating system had broken! He said he would get an Heating plus Air Conditioning serviceman to the new home as soon as possible. It was getting colder by the minute, plus I was considering going to my friend’s new home until the Heating plus Air Conditioning serviceman could arrive. It was only five degrees out, plus I knew I couldn’t stay here much longer. I was sitting in the kitchen wrapped up in a blanket when the owner of the new home called. He asked if I had a space heater. I didn’t have 1 plus he said he had more than two. I asked if I could use 1 of his space heaters. He said he called to offer them to myself and others if I wanted. It wasn’t my fault the Heating plus Air Conditioning method had broken down, plus I shouldn’t be suffering. His partner was in the background plus I could hear her telling him to give her the phone; When she got the phone out of his hands, she asked if I wanted to come to their new home instead of staying there with space heaters. The Heating plus Air Conditioning company couldn’t get a serviceman to the new home for about forty-eight hours. She nervous the pipes may freeze, plus even though her husband had heat tapes on the pipes, it was still a option. I thanked her, however I told them I would go to my friend’s new home plus stay warm. She sounded irritated that she couldn’t do more for me, however I had to take care of myself.

Most people look at you prefer you’re nuts when you tell them you’re going camping in the desert, the two of us had a small camper, however it had powder room, a family room, plus Heating plus A/C.

The two of us were going to be comfortable while camping, however i wanted to see the stars from the desert plus my bestie wanted to see if it legitimately got frosty in the desert at evening.

The two of us set up camp, pulled out some food both of us had in the cooler, plus was just getting comfortable, when the evening got silent. I looked at my bestie, plus she looked at me. The two of us both said it at the same time. The Heating plus A/C proposal quit working. The two of us pulled all of our stuff into the camper, plus knew both of us had to pull out before the sunlight came up. The two of us had travelled all day, plus now both of us had to travel all evening until both of us could find another campground, or a hotel both of us could afford. I started to laugh at the irony of it. The two of us came to the desert, lost our Heating plus A/C, plus now both of us needed a hotel with heat because it was too frosty to go separate from it. The two of us both began to laugh, she looked at myself and others plus said that once both of us found a hotel, she wanted to be the first in the shower. The two of us flipped a coin, plus then flipped another coin to see which hotel both of us wanted to stay at. It was an self-explanatory choice, because 1 of them also had our preferred diner in the lot. The two of us could order from their menu plus both of us be showered before they made delivery.
