I’m genuinely quite serene as the Summer months are fast approaching.
It’s late April now so that means I’m soaking up all the moments of lovely Spring weather that I can.
Each work afternoon, I’m even slipping out of the commercial Heating, Ventilation and A/C of the office to sit outside plus eat. There is a park that’s about four blocks away from the office. It’s still so nice at lunch that getting out the a/c is not only possible but genuinely quite delightful. But I’m serene about the coming Summer for a strange reason. Normally, I’m a bit worried plus full of dread for the uneven temperatures to zoom to the upper 90’s along with all the humidity being mixed in. Being outside during the peak heating hours of the afternoon is not advisable from about July through September, but last year, I was beside myself when it came to facing the Summer heat. That’s because I rolled the dice that our outdated heat pump would make it another Summer. The Heating, Ventilation and A/C professionals had already warned me that the heat pump was on it’s last lap. But I wanted to get one more Summer out of it. I did everything I could do to lighten the load on the outdated heat pump. It was the warmest Summer ever inside my home. But it was the stress of wondering if the heat pump was going to conk out that was so angry. I limped that thing through to the Fall plus now have new residential Heating, Ventilation and A/C. Honestly, the stress just so wasn’t worth it.
