I’m in love with this time of year.
- Actually, I’m in love with just about any time of year that isn’t Winter.
We have a bit more of that season that I would prefer. Around here, it starts getting cold in October and the gas furnace will be running into and sometimes through April. So May is just a joy for me. The gas furnace isn’t coming on at all. I called the HVAC company to set up the air conditioning tune up. And it’s time to get the garden going. I love seeing all the green because it reassures me that I have a reprieve from Winter for a bit. My husband took a job up here. Working from home as an IT consultant allowed me to follow wherever I needed to go. But believe me, I wasn’t so into heating a house all Winter. Where I come from, the heat pump hardly even comes on during the Winter. The first few Winters up here, we had to deal with an older gas furnace. We inherited the HVAC equipment as part of getting an amazing price on our home. However, that old gas furnace was expensive and it was always a bit cold in the house. But this past Winter, we replaced that gas furnace with a new one. And wow, what a difference that made. Our house was cozy warm all Winter long. Additionally, we saved a ton of money on heating costs we all the added efficiency of the new fas furnace. It even made the transition to Spring weather all the more easy. Thanks to the new HVAC equipment, I didn’t actually hate the Winter this year. But I’m sure glad it’s over and I get to be outside in the sunshine now.
