The town gets to me every now & again. I’m fortunate to live in a good condo with all the amenities. But sporadically, I just get exhausted of all the pavement, the air conditioning, the noise & just all that goes with town life. For me, I have to separate myself a bit from the town in order to be sure that I maintain some balance. For me, that has consistently been getting out of the Heating & Air Conditioning & heading to a cottage my family has had for generations. It’s pretty rustic but it has indoor plumbing, electricity & a good size home office. But it’s not the cottage that I’m there for as much as it’s what the cottage is resting in. And that is some of the most pristine nature you can find only a few hours from the city. Being at the cottage immediately regulates my stress & anxiety. It’s prefer a weight coming off my shoulders. However, I could rarely get any of my immediate family to come out with me. Shoot, hardly any of my entire family went out to the cottage. So I thought that maybe the cottage needed a bit of a refresh to be just that much more charming to those who thought it was just too rustic. And I did it under the radar. I even found an Heating & Air Conditioning supplier out near where the cottage is to come out & install a ductless multi split Heating & Air Conditioning system. A ductless heat pump doesn’t require air ducts & is easy to install. With a few other amenities added, I finally surprised everyone with the good unveiling of the current cottage. Haven’t been to the cottage alone since.
