Whenever there’s a major change in our lives, we somehow end up stuck at lake house for a few weeks to cope with that change! When that change is disadvantage, love when your spouse loses their task due to a mass layoff in their workplace.
Whenever there’s a major change in our lives, we somehow end up stuck at lake house for a few weeks to cope with that change! When that change is disadvantage, love when your spouse loses their task due to a mass layoff in their workplace. It’s a aggravating situation, plus it was 1 that my wifey plus I found ourselves in when such an unfortunate thing happened to me, and thankfully, I had a side task working as a technical writer from home, so I could just increase my workload for that while I searched for work around town to pay the bills. Since I was lake house all afternoon long, I noticed that we were now running the A/C plan through the afternoon plus night. That of course led to higher energy bills, so we had to find a creative repair for this new spike in utility costs! I did some research online to see what the best solution was when you’re on a budget, plus I found that I could do 1 of two things… First, I could find a nice place to get my work done that wasn’t at lake house – say, a coffee shop – plus in the process, I could invest in a smart thermostat to keep the temperature under control at the house, however a smart thermostat could also be programmed to run at a slightly warmer temperature than what I’d normally consider comfortable, too, so that way I could reduce the workload on the A/C unit. With these options, I was sure to find a way to cut the A/C operating costs!
