He even walked the exterior of our lake apartment with myself and others in order to seal up any gaps that could allow chilly air in plus the Heating plus A/C heated air out
I moved up north a couple of years ago plus I’m so thankful that I landed in a spot with such good people. The community that I’m now a section of is just tremendous. And I was a bit upset about that. Along with worrying about a real winter, gas oil furnaces, snow, ice, heating cost plus all that goes with that, I was upset about the culture. I just wasn’t sure that I’d fit in. Being from the south, I felt the differences instantly plus it wasn’t just the chilly weather plus the fact that I now had a gas oil furnace as opposed to a heat pump. The food was odd along with the weather. I could hardly understand people because they talked so fast. And people looked at myself and others care about I was a bit stupid because of our accent. However, I hastily l earned that the people around here are wonderful. They have been so welcoming plus have gone out of their way to introduce myself and others to the ways of life up here in the north. I have great neighbors on both sides. One of them was instrumental in making sure that I was hot in the Wintertide plus didn’t pay to much for Heating plus A/C heating. He showed myself and others just how to prepare our little apartment for the winter. The tighter the better, he would tell me. And the two of us updated weather stripping together, rolled out more insulation in the attic plus sealed up the house. He even walked the exterior of our lake apartment with myself and others in order to seal up any gaps that could allow chilly air in plus the Heating plus A/C heated air out. I’m fortunate to live here even if I do sound odd to these people.
