I found a nice humidifier at a thrift store

I am so gleeful that I got that humidifier

I found a nice humidifier at a thrift store. I didn’t even know if I was going to get it or not because it is the middle of July, in addition to it is super humid outside. The humidifier was only ten dollars, in addition to it was a entirely great name brand. I knew that if I passed it up, I would never find such a great deal again. Those humidifiers usually go for a hundred dollars or more. It was such a strenuous decision for me to make, however looking back, it should not have been a strenuous decision. It absolutely should have been a no brainer for me to snatch up that humidifier. Well, I didn’t get it the first time that I saw it, but I saw another lady pick it up in addition to put it in her cart. I thought that was the end. I ended up going back to that part of the store just before I was going to leave because I was looking for a picture frame. When I got over there, I saw the humidifier again. I was so confused. I think the lady put the humidifier back. It was fate at that point. I grabbed the humidifier, obtained it, in addition to left the store. I am so gleeful that I got that humidifier. My hubby was so gleeful when he saw it, then apparently, he had been looking for that particular brand of humidifier for a long time, but he just decided not to mention it to me. He is so gleeful about our current humidifier that I found at the thrift store.

My rabbit chewed the cord to my air conditioner

My rabbit chewed the cord to my air conditioner.

I knew that it would happen sometime because I let my rabbits saunter free in my house.

I particularly should not do that, however they are all dwelling trained, and I hate to keep them in a cage all day. They are in their cages at night though because I can’t keep an eye on them while I am sleeping. I have three air conditioners in my house. I have one air conditioner in my home office, one in the kitchen, and one in the home office. The air conditioner in the home office is too high for the rabbits to reach which is nice. I close the door to my home office during the day, so the rabbits cannot chew the cord to that air conditioner. The kitchen air conditioner is the only problem. I labor at a desk in my kitchen, so I am in there for eight hours a day at least. I watch to make sure that the rabbits don’t chew the air conditioner cord, however somehow one of them chewed the cord within the five minutes that I was out of the kitchen last month. I know which one did it too because he was still there when I came back into the room. I have no idea how he is still alive because the air conditioner was on. He chewed through the entire cord. It was basically in two separate pieces. It is genuinely my fault, even though I can’t know he did it so abruptly… Now, I have to get another air conditioner.

My house is so warm now that I started using a propane heater

I had never used a propane heater in my life until last week.

I was having trouble heating my house for quite some time.

It had probably been about two years since I had a working furnace. My furnace still worked a little bit, but it just did not get my house up to temperature. It was no fun at all. It is cold for most of the year where I live, so not having a properly working furnace just was not acceptable. I really wish that I could have gotten a propane heater sooner, but I didn’t even know that they existed. One of my friends actually told me about propane heaters. Apparently, she had used one to heat her garage, and she told me that it worked super well. I decided to try it out since I had nothing to lose. I could not afford to get my furnace fixed, so getting a propane heater was basically one of my only options. I bought a propane heater that sort of looks like a fireplace, but I guess it wasn’t really a fireplace. I thought it was, but the man at the store corrected me. He did take me to look at a few propane fireplaces, but they cost more than twice as much as the first propane heater that we looked at. I ended up getting the first propane heater that I looked at, and it works great. My house is actually warm again. I am so thankful that my friend recommended that I get a propane heater. I don’t know if I could have lived much longer in my cold house without it.

I broke my air conditioner by dropping it down the stairs

I had to carry it down just one flight of stairs, and somehow, I managed to drop it down that flight of stairs

Apparently, I don’t have very good luck when it comes to HVAC units. My furnace gave me quite a bit of trouble this past year, and now, I broke my only air conditioner. I think that my furnace is finally fixed. It better be fixed after how much money I put into it. I had an HVAC company come and fix my furnace, and I could not believe how much they charged me to do that. It was over a thousand dollars to fix my furnace. The only solace that I have about it is the fact that I have a working furnace now. I had not had a working furnace for over a year. My air conditioner is a whole different story. I used to have a window unit that I used every single summer. I put the window air conditioning unit in my living room window, and it cooled most of my house. My bedroom was still a little bit warm because it was on the opposite end of the house, but the rest of my house was pretty cool. I bought the window unit thinking it would just cool the living room, but I was happy to find out that it cooled a lot more. I went to install my air conditioner in the living room window just like every year, and I dropped it down the stairs. You see, I store the air conditioner in my upstairs bedroom. I had to carry it down just one flight of stairs, and somehow, I managed to drop it down that flight of stairs. I am quite disappointed in myself. Now, I need a new air conditioner.

I am not sure what happened to my air conditioner

I lost my air conditioner, and I have no idea how I lost it.

I moved last year, but I know that I took my air conditioner with me.

It was during the summer that I moved, so I took the air conditioner out of the living room of my old house and put it in the living room window of my new house. I continued to use it for another month or so before I put it away in storage. I store things in my attic just like I did at my previous house. I looked everywhere in my attic, and I simply cannot find my air conditioner. It is not a very big attic, so there are very few places that I could even put it. I looked in every other place in my house that I could think of, and I still could not find my air conditioner. I think I may have to buy another one. My mom said that I can borrow hers for now, but I really don’t want to have to use hers. She does not use her air conditioner unless it gets super hot in her house. It has to be over eighty-five degrees in her house for her to even consider using her air conditioner. I cannot believe she likes it that warm, but she does. I am just worried that if I borrow her air conditioner, she might need it. She would never ask for it while I was using it, so she would just suffer in the heat, and I don’t want that. I think that buying a new air conditioner may be my best option.

My mom’s heater is really nice

I love going to my mom’s house.

  • She is a great hostess, and even though I am her daughter, she still spoils me like she would other guests at her house.

She probably spoils me even more than she would others. That is not the only reason that I like going over to her house. I also love spending time with her. She is a calm, compassionate woman. She never speaks ill of anyone. She is so encouraging. I almost always leave her house with a smile on my face because she has lifted my spirits even if they weren’t down. She recently got a new heater that makes me love visiting her even more. She bought a smart heater that is really cool. It works really well too. I love it. I am thinking about getting a smart heater for my home now. She can control it from her phone. I have to admit that I never expected my mom to buy a smart heater. She is not really a techy person. She is not one of those older people who knows nothing about modern technology, but she is just not super into it. I am really glad that she decided to get that smart heater. It is good for her. She was quite cold in her house for some time. Her furnace works, but for some reason, it does not keep her house very warm. She should really get it checked out, but she doesn’t want to spend the money on it right now. In my opinion, a furnace is a really important thing, and if it needs to be fixed, it should take priority. Obviously, my mom doesn’t see it that way, so I am glad that she at least got a smart heater.

Life is too short to go without air conditioning

I broke down and turned on my air conditioner

I used to say that I would never use air conditioning when I moved out on my own. My parents would laugh at me and tell me to just wait and see. I used to get so upset with them. I thought that it was a huge waste of money and energy to run air conditioning throughout the summer. I would try to convince my parents to go without air conditioning just for a week, but they would never do it. I did this my entire childhood. When I finally moved out on my own, I vowed to never use an air conditioner. I went the first few years without air conditioning. I was offered a really great job a few states south of where I grew up, and I took the job. It was not easy to move away from my family, but I knew that it would be really good for my career, so I decided to just go ahead and make the move. I was only about five hours from my family, so I knew that I would still be able to visit them quite often. I was determined at that point to still live without air conditioning. I went about three months in my new home without air conditioning before I just couldn’t do it anymore. It was almost a hundred degrees outside, and it was probably around that same temperature in my house. I broke down and turned on my air conditioner. It was the first time that I had used air conditioning since I moved out of my parent’s house. I decided that life is too short to go without air conditioning.

I bought an air conditioner for my bedroom

I was sick and tired of my husband’s and my bedroom being warm, so I finally bought an air conditioner.

I literally waited five years to buy it.

It is not because I had to wait; I just kept putting it off. I am the kind of person who likes to save money whenever I can. I put off buying an air conditioner because I knew that it would cost quite a bit of money to buy it and run it. I was literally lying awake in bed each night for hours because I was too warm to sleep. I didn’t tell my husband that I had trouble sleeping because of the heat. I knew that if I told him, he would go and buy an air conditioner for me. He is just super sweet like that. I hated being so warm, but I refused to spend the money to buy an air conditioner. My husband never seemed to be bothered by the heat. If he was, he would have bought an air conditioner. He actually gets cold sometimes now that we have an air conditioner in our bedroom. I told him to go ahead and turn off the air conditioner whenever he gets cold since he usually gets cold in the middle of the night when I am already sleeping soundly. I don’t usually wake up once I have fallen asleep, even if the room gets a little warmer than what I would prefer. I am super glad to finally have an air conditioner in our bedroom. I honestly sleep better that I ever have, and I wish that I would have gotten and air conditioner sooner.

My kids complain about how warm I keep the house

I got my nice warm house, and that is all that I wanted

There is nothing like having a nice warm house. I absolutely love to come home from work each and every day to a nice warm house. My family and I have different definitions when it comes to a warm house though. When I say a nice warm house, I mean that the house is at least seventy-eight degrees. When my family says they like the house to be warm, they mean about sixty-eight degrees. Ten degrees makes a huge difference. I get to set the thermostat since I am the mom though, so my children complain all of the time about how warm the house is. I always tell them to just be thankful that they have heat. It is sort of a joke nowadays. They walk in the house after getting home from school and comment on the temperature of the house. It may cost a bit more during the wintertime to keep my house around eighty degrees, but I save money during the summertime because we hardly ever have to use an air conditioner. I am thankful that my husband does not have a preference when it comes to the temperature of the house. It is only my children that have trouble with the house being so warm. I think they are starting to get used to the temperature though. It only took three years for them to get used to having a warm house, but all that time of complaining was worth it. I got my nice warm house, and that is all that I wanted. I am super glad to have a warm house.

My heater is so nice

My husband is so amazing. He is always doing something sweet for me. We have been married for over ten years now, and I cannot think of a time that we have had a serious fight. We have had our disagreements, of course, but we have been able to work them out quite peaceably. I cannot imagine my life without him. I long for the time when he gets home each and every day. It is hard to be away from him. Two days ago, he came home from work with a brand new space heater. He had stopped at the store on his way home from work and bought me a space heater. I did not ask for one directly, but he knew that I wanted one. I mentioned to him about a week ago that I was cold in my office. I work from home, and the room that I use as my office does not heat up very well. There are no HVAC ducts in there, so I have to leave the door open to allow the heat from the rest of the house to flow into that room. It probably only gets to about fifty-five or sixty degrees in there if there is no space heater. I only mentioned to him that I was chilly that one time. He remembered though and bought me a really nice electric space heater. I am so thankful for my husband and the space heater that he bought me. That heater gets my office up to about eighty degrees, and that is the perfect temperature in my opinion.
