I have central A/C (in a sense . . . :cautious: ). In the summer, we have 2 window units that we remove in Sept. In the winter, we keep the heat down so low that it's almost like year-round A/C at home! :joyfull: :joyfull:

Ha we have central A/C but I also have 2 window unit just for me. I have been known to freeze out my family over the years too over the winter months. I like 68 year round.

I started window units when my kids were both away at college. I had two from when the temps were in the 105 range for over a week and that was too much for my central a/c and we face west. We were having a very large party. Sometimes I just needed A/C in the kitchen/family room area or in my room at night. I tend to run warm with this bed that has a dual pillow top and memory foam. The bed is beyond comfy but it does retain heat. I have a window a/c unit in here a few months a year just to run a few hours at night. It has a remote so if I wake in the wee hours I usually shut it off. Much more economical than cooling down the whole house when it isn't needed. That is not to say I don't run the central A/C 24/7 when it is hot out. Unfortunately that hasn't been the case the last few summers.

Exactly. Well stated.

In my town we didn't have sidewalks when my kids were growing up. For us they came during 9/11 with major road rebuilding that year. My DD was in 4th grade my DS already in high school. My kids learned to navigate the roads while walking and riding bikes in the street. I so hated that. I grew up with sidewalks and some people are nuts driving their cars around kids.

I have empathy for you and the ambulance driver. I had my son in his buggy in the mega mall. Maybe 3 months old. I was in the hallway portion and he was screaming his fool head off, colic and all but I needed to buy Christmas Presents so the mall it was him screaming me exhausted. An elderly women sitting on a brick wall next to her husband stood up and stuck her face into the buggy and screamed two inches from my DS face SHUT UP and yelled at me for not keeping him quiet. Yep. Nuts. I ignored her and looked at her mortified husband and told him to get a grip on his wife or I was calling for security. Poor guy. He attempted as I pushed the buggy onward as she then fought with him. I'll never forget the loon in my infant sons face screaming.

This is really funny (in a sense--not meant to laugh at the extra work and effort you're doing). I've also had friends who would begin with one improvement to a room, and then realize that everything else in the room looked like carp, compared to the one improvement. So they end up gutting the whole thing and completely redoing the entire room! They were also frustrated with the whole thing, not to mention all the extra money they needed to shell out!

I'm really trying to laugh as it started out as a seasonal cleaning project.

My hubby saw the first TED and thought it was hilarious. He hasn't seen TED 2 yet. From what I've heard, I think the TED movies tend to appeal more to a male audience.
