I had never been to the beauty shop before last week. Why would I go to a place like that, when I’m a big, rugged type of chick?

Before I can properly explain to you what happened to the temperature control I need to fill you in on the backstory.

I didn’t want to become a handyman, I just sort of fell into it. I grew up in a poor family, as well as my parents taught me how to make the most out of anything. My good friend and I never threw out food or donated used clothes. My Dad would always repurpose the… Continue reading I’m not a certified HVAC tech but I do OK for myself

There has never been a/c in the back room, but surprisingly the new ventilation plan helps with that, too. Working with a deep fat fryer in the house comes with a whole lot of negatives. I would never have one of these things in my own house, because they cause such a greasy mess as… Continue reading The new ventilation plans are amazing

The ceiling in my apartment office almost collapsed on my head last week, as well as I’m looking at a sizable bill to get it repaired; Part of me wants to just tack up some thick plastic sheeting then not worry about fixing the ceiling at all, however, a contractor looked at the disfigure as… Continue reading It would lead to so many complications with my air ducts

Living in the deep south is not for the weak. It takes a tough woman made of stern stuff to survive in the swamps of the southeastern corner of the country; For example, consider the bug population for a second. In this section my good friend Ed and I have bees, wasps, hornets, sixteen strange… Continue reading In the Deep South I rely on my air conditioner

I am in my mid 20s, I have no children or immediate family, as well as have been “in between” partners for about eight months, which means that I get stuck with a lot of the extra work that comes… Continue reading A spooky oil furnace service during Halloween

I bought this house when I was just 25 years old and spent the following 10 years paying off the mortgage.

Ideally, I would… Continue reading I was surprised to hear that my 15-year-old air conditioner was in good shape

For the longest time I kept praying for the chance to someday be a homeowner. Back then I was five years into renting by myself after leaving college and getting a studio with a single room for the first time. Renting seems a lot more straightforward if you can stomach the money that you waste… Continue reading The HOA where I live is against the condensers for ductless mini splits

While the two of us were waiting for the Heating plus Air Conditioning company the other afternoon, I had to send my kids outside because they were driving myself and others crazy.

I hate long days working outside. It’s my fault since I decided to join the landscaping business. I make really good money but the days are long and where I am from the days are typically hot all year round, a little cooler in the winter months but not much. I eat out a lot… Continue reading Eating spaghetti in front of my air conditioner
