I have some of the sweetest friends in the entire world.

Most of my friends are either from the church that I am part of or from my hometown about four hours north of where I am living now.

They have always been there for me. Last year, my sibling abruptly passed away, and it was by far the hardest thing that I have ever been through. If it was not for the appreciate and care of my friends, I do not know where I would be today. They helped me get through by providing meals for me and making sure that all my bills were paid because I was not able to toil for a couple of weeks. I could not feel how much they did for me during that time. Well, a couple of weeks ago, my air conditioning system started making some unusual noises. I knew that it was not good, although I was hoping that it would at least last for the rest of the summer. It lasted about two and a half weeks before it just stopped working completely. I told one of my close friends from church that my air conditioning system stopped working, and she took it upon herself to buy me a brand current air conditioning system. Somehow, word must have spread because within two nights time, I had three brand current air conditioning systems delivered to me. Now, I live in a tiny apartment, so I honestly do not need three air conditioning systems. One air conditioning system is enough to cool my entire house. I am not sure what I will do with the other two yet, although I feel so overwhelmingly blessed to have such attractive friends.

I told my partner that I may have to leave for the winter

My partner and I live in an older house, and I absolutely do appreciate it. It has been in my partner’s family for a few generations. I feel his Grandfather was the one who built the condo when he and his wife first got married! We have multiple things in the condo that date back to the 1770s which is absolutely cool. His Grandfather saved so multiple things from his father and Grandfather. I am a history nerd, so it fascinates me to have all of these antique things. The only thing that I absolutely do not like about living in this aged condo is having to heat it with propane fireplaces in the wintertime. There is no boiler in the house, so instead of installing one, my associate and I chose to put a few propane fireplaces and heaters throughout the house. I thought that it would not be a big deal, although I learned very hastily that I very dislike the smell of propane. It is one of the worst smells that I have ever smelled! Sometimes, I walk into my condo and just run to the toilet because of how sick the smell of propane makes me. I know that it is going to be a thousand times worse this year because I am pregnant. All smells are more potent now which means the smell of our propane heaters and fireplaces will most likely make me very sick. I told my partner that I may have to leave for the winter. I was joking, although I honestly am worried about it. My partner said that he is going to do everything that he can to help avoid a propane smell in the house.

I have realized recently that there are several things that I overlook when it comes to cleaning.

I have worked a full time job ever since my partner plus I were first married, so cleaning some of the overlooked things was a once a year kind of thing.

Now that I am a stay at dwelling mom, I realize that those things entirely should be cleaned more often. Our cooling system is one of those things that I have literally never cleaned. I know it is pretty concerned considering my pal and I have been using the same cooling system for almost seven years now. I observed that the living room was starting to stink a little bit musty, plus at first, I could not figure out where the stink was coming from. After a little bit of searching, I realized that it was coming from the cooling system. I took the cooling system apart to see if I could find the source of the stink, plus I realized that the entire cooling system was filled with mildew. It was genuinely gross to say the least. I thought about just throwing the cooling system away plus buying a brand modern one, although I decided to try plus clean it first. Thankfully, it cleaned up quite well. I replaced the filter that should have been replaced years ago. The cooling system grossed me out so badly that I decided that I should entirely clean my boiler as well. The boiler was not nearly as exhausting as the cooling system, luckily, but it was still quite a job to clean it. Tomorrow, I think that I will clean all of the vents in the house.

He does not think that it will be worth the cost of another dehumidifier

My partner plus I have been having a couple major issues with our home recently. One of the issues has been flooding in our basement. My partner plus his neighbor dug some sort of ditch last year that they thought would help deter the water from coming into the basement, but it obviously did not work. I feel so exhausting because they spent a lot of time digging that ditch. My partner has been looking for some ways to stop the water once again, although he has had no fortune so far. The basement does not flood nearly as exhausting as it did last year, but the floor down there still stays pretty wet. I decided to buy a dehumidifier to go down there to see if it would help collect some of that water. I did not know what dehumidifier to buy, so I looked at multiple weird stores plus online. After looking at the reviews of several dehumidifiers, I finally picked one. It was not the most lavish, but it was close to it. I wanted one that would work well. I have been using the dehumidifier for almost two weeks now, plus I feel like it is doing absolutely nothing. I know that it is doing something because I empty water out of it everyday, but it just does not do much compared to how much water comes into the basement. I have thought about getting a second dehumidifier, but my partner said that it entirely will not make enough of a difference. He does not think that it will be worth the cost of another dehumidifier. However, a neighbor offered me a free dehumidifier, so I am going to go over to her home plus option it up tonight.

I bought my first house when I was twenty-two years old, plus it was a huge, old farmhouse.

• I enjoyed that house so much.

After my husband plus I got married, he moved into the farmhouse with me, plus my buddy and I lived there for twenty years. We would have never moved except for the fact that the house was basically falling apart around us. It needed so much work because it was actually old. I did not want to leave at all. It took numerous tears plus fighting with myself to finally give in plus sell that house. My husband plus I moved into an house for the time being. We are currently looking for a newer house to buy, however my buddy and I have not been able to find one that my buddy and I like yet, so my buddy and I are settling into the house for the winter. We had to turn our heater on for the first time this year about two months ago, plus I am just now realizing how much currency my buddy and I are saving on our gas bill by living in such a small apartment. I never thought that I would like living in a small locale, however I absolutely have learned to enjoy it. I had to get rid of a lot of things, however they were all things that I did not even need. When I consider how much currency my buddy and I are saving on gas plus even our electric bill, I am convinced that I could enjoy living in a small house for the rest of my life. Heating our huge farmhouse was so luxurious. I literally had to work part time over the winter just to be able to pay our heating bills. I suppose I can get used to living in a small space.

My husband plus I have been having a couple major troubles with our house recently.

One of the troubles has been flooding in our basement.

My husband plus his buddy dug some sort of ditch last year that they thought would help deter the water from coming into the basement, however it evidently did not work. I feel so bad because they spent a lot of time digging that ditch. My husband has been looking for some ways to stop the water once again, although he has had no luck so far. The basement does not flood nearly as bad as it did last year, however the floor down there still stays pretty wet. I decided to buy a dehumidifier to go down there to see if it would help collect some of that water. I did not know what dehumidifier to buy, so I looked at several weird stores plus online. After looking at the reviews of numerous dehumidifiers, I finally picked one. It was not the most luxurious, however it was close to it. I wanted one that would work well. I have been using the dehumidifier for almost two weeks now, plus I feel like it is doing absolutely nothing. I know that it is doing something because I empty water out of it everyday, however it just does not do much compared to how much water comes into the basement. I have thought about getting a second dehumidifier, however my husband said that it legitimately will not make enough of a difference. He does not suppose that it will be worth the cost of another dehumidifier. However, a buddy offered me a free dehumidifier, so I am going to go over to his house plus pick it up tonight.

I am not sure that anyone absolutely enjoys cleaning their house. Maybe some ridiculous people do, however I do not. I wish that I had the currency to hire someone to scrub the house for me, however that is just not in the budget right now. My husband loves it when the house is clean, so he helps me scrub whenever he can, although he works a full time job that requires a lot of physical labor, so I hate to ask him to help me when he gets house from work. I only work part time right now, so I have a lot more time plus energy to get the house scrub than he does. I have found out that the best way to motivate me to scrub is to turn the cooling system on. I know it may sound absurd, however if the cooling system is on plus the house is cold, I don’t like to sit still. I usually end up cleaning the house without even realizing it. I cherish being able to motivate myself by just turning on the cooling system. I do not know what I will do in the wintertime though. I feel I can just open the windows in the house to let in some chilly air, or maybe, I could just turn the heat down! Turning the heat down is legitimately a better option because my husband might be distraught if I open the windows while the heat is on, however air conditioning is a blessing in more ways than one I guess, and not only does it cool the house, however it also motivates me to scrub my house.

I have realized recently that there are multiple things that I overlook when it comes to cleaning.

I have worked a full time job ever since my partner and I were first married, so cleaning some of the overlooked things was a once a year kind of thing. Now that I am a stay at property mom, I realize that those things absolutely should be cleaned more often. Our a/c is one of those things that I have literally never cleaned. I know it is pretty sad considering we have been using the same a/c for almost seven years now. I noticed that the home office was starting to stink a little bit musty, and at first, I could not figure out where the stink was coming from. After a little bit of searching, I realized that it was coming from the a/c. I took the a/c apart to see if I could find the source of the stink, and I realized that the entire a/c was filled with mildew. It was unquestionably gross to say the least. I thought about just throwing the a/c away and buying a brand new one, but I decided to try and wash it first. Thankfully, it cleaned up quite well. I updated the filter that should have been updated years ago. The a/c grossed me out so badly that I decided that I should absolutely wash my boiler as well. The boiler was not nearly as bad as the a/c, luckily, but it was still quite a job to wash it. Tomorrow, I suppose that I will wash all of the vents in the house.

There is only one thing that I miss about living in our little one study room house and that is how cheap it was to heat and cool the site.

My friend and I hardly paid anything in gas or electric.

I had gotten so used to it that when we finally moved into our dream home, I was truly caught off guard by the prices of our electric bill and gas bill. My friend and I lived in a one study room house with three children which was a eveningmare, but we did it for multiple years. My friend and I looked and looked for a property that was within our price range yet still unquestionably nice, but we did not find one for multiple years. My partner worked so difficult to try and find a site, and when we finally found the property of our dreams, we were ecstatic! My friend and I were able to move into the new property within just a few weeks because it had been empty for awhile. It is a beautiful two story house, and it has a three vehicle garage which my partner really loves. The kids each have their own study room now instead of sharing part of the home office. It is entirely a dream come true for our family. The only issue that I have is the heating and cooling bills, and during the summertime, we spend over eight times as much on our electric bill than we did before because of the central cooling system. Of course, I knew that the bills would go up, but I think was just not prepared for how much the bills would go up.
