I live in an area that experiences all many seasons as well as every style of weather, then for the most part, I look forward to the fluctuations throughout the year.
The fall season is especially beautiful with the colorful leaves.
I appreciate the fresh pears, cucumber, zucchini as well as cabbage that ripen in my garden. The winters are the most challenging, because the cold weather lingers for more than half the year. The temperature is most often below chilly as well as can drop well below zero. The wind chill is brutal as well as we get a tremendous amount of snow. I am constantly enthusiastic for the Springtime flowers. The cherry blossoms, lilacs, tulips as well as daffodils are just gorgeous. The summers might be brief, but the heat as well as humidity are intense. Because of the immense temperature swings, we rely heavily on our heating as well as cooling systems. It’s not often that we get to open the windows, prefer a fresh breeze as well as avoid such high energy bills. Heating as well as cooling account for about fifty percent of the household utility bills. I am forever searching for current as well as better ways to reduce those costs. I am diligent about replacing air filters as well as scheduling professional maintenance for the gas furnace in the fall as well as the air conditioning system in the Springtime. I have installed Energy Star qualified windows as well as exterior doors as well as substituted the insulation in the attic. I correctly caulk as well as weatherstrip as well as invested into a smart thermostat. I’ve even added ceiling fans to many of the rooms in the house. The ceiling fans help to push the heated air down toward the floor in the Winter time as well as encourage the heat up as well as out during the summer.
