Daddy's got it set to a higher temp during the day and lower at night...that way it gets cold while we're not here, and then stays cold while we're here and in and out the doors...
|
Gosh I feel like I live in the 1920's. Am I the only person I know without an air conditioner?
|
We live in a speck home...it was basically built from a box, so it's got nothing really unique about it...
But I'm pretty sure for houses to pass inspection now a days (at least in the bible belt of the south), they have to have central heating and AC... |
Yeah I'm sure... it gets ridiculously hot and muggy down there, and tons of bugs because of the moisture in the air.
|
Yeah...I do know that window units aren't that expensive and they can cool a house down amazingly well if placed in just the right spot...
|
Yeah they can.. it's just that the power bill will skyrocket for us and we can't afford to pay that high of a bill every month.
|
Power bills are ridiculously high during the summer. My mom called once, last summer, because the bill was getting way higher than normal. Turned out they were billing the wrong person. She didn't get her money back. -_- But, they did offer a discount of some sort. It helped but after that we started getting our 'normal' bills again.
|
I'm pretty sure that now some window units use only as much as a washing machine, and if you keep the other windows closed during the day, even on the lowest setting it should make it cool during the heat of the day...
|
Rozalyne - Yeah that's bs in my opinion... they should have refunded her what they overcharged AND offered a small discount for three months.
Kali - I've just gotta talk my parents into getting one. They're looking into it because of the sudden heat, thank goodness. |
@Ginger
Yeah, my momma wasn't satisfied and still pissed. It's just so annoying that some companies can get away with so much BS. On a side note. My brother and I have switched closets, but I still have a crap load of stuff in the old closet. Mainly art stuff and college books and notes. xD; |
It's BS how companies can do that, I agree. Social Security has numerously overpaid my mom and she has owed them back pay. In my opinion, THEY screwed up, not her. They should have to learn from their mistakes instead of repeating them.
|
Yeah... my boyfriend gets Social Security, but luckily their lawyer knows what the hell he's doing so when they tried that crap on him, he put a stop to it.
It's just ridiculous. |
A lawyer is a good thing to have in cases like that, but unfortunately my mom is too broke to afford one. :c
|
-snuggles all over thread-
|
OHS!!
Hiya Batty!!! How are you today??? |
I'm doing alright.
Waiting for my mom to want to get started on watching supernatural |
Nice. I'm working on a 6 page paper that I originally thought was supposed to be 9 pages long...
|
Eww, that doesnt sound like fun!
|
Hey, it's three pages less than what I thought I would have to write!
It's actually mostly a bunch of BS with little facts thrown in... |
That's usually how I write my papers too xD
|
Lols...I was sooooo worried about getting a full 9 pages...It's only 6 pages long...I was so relieved!
I've got a quarter of a page done now lols... |
Three pages less makes all the difference :)
|
Yuppers!!!
Especially since I write it in single space and then surprise myself when I change it to double... So how are you tonight? |
Oh I love that haha.. it instantly takes the load off a little bit.
I'm alright I guess, supremely hot but the house is gradually cooling down. How about you? |
Pretty good. Not wanting to work on my paper so I was gonna try to pixel some more for a little while...
|
I am finally home. owo I was out all day with the bestie.
|
Lols...and I'm now headed for bed...it's 2am here...lols!
|
It's 1:28am here. >.< My parents got home about 20 mins after I did. xD
|
Nice!!!
*Realizes you're only 1 hour behind her* Yeah, but I gotta get up early enough to work on my paper... |
Oh I see.
Well you definitely have to go to sleep. |
It's storming intensely here right now and it's really close...
|
Oh gosh. D:
It's suppose to rain all this week... And I was having trouble with Tris, it wouldn't load haha. |
Is it also supposed to be hot? 'Cause rain and hot don't mix too well...
I sometimes have troubles with it too. |
Not hot, hot, like 97+, but the highest it's been so far is 76-78 degrees.
|
Hey everyone :)
|
Hiya!
How are you today? |
I'm doing pretty good. I should probably eat something.
/stomach grumbles. Yourself? |
Pretty good, just working on notes for my paper...
|

|
It's on a mill town near me...it's only 6 pages, but I gotta finish it this weekend so I an turn it in early and focus on my other class...
