Enough was enough. After 3 winters up here, I’m finally done with just sitting by while I’m paying big heating bills; It’s just dumb to not at least be proactive and do the best I can to save a bit of money when it comes to those heating costs! The last few winters, I wasn’t so vigilant when it came to Winter time preparations and getting the apartment right for winter. But now that I’ve been here 3 winters and going into my third, it was time for a change. I am absolutely blissful I ended up buying this apartment when I did, then when I came up here to apartment hunt prior to moving, I was only given about numerous afternoons to meet with realtors and get it done. If I couldn’t get it done in that amount of time, I was just going to rent. But I did find this locale and had just gotten a total central a/c replace. This replace included a gas oil furnace which would turn out to be a saving grace! Of course, this all happened right before the real estate market went berserk, and now I couldn’t even get close to touching this locale for the price I paid. It looks enjoy I am going to be here for a while longer as well, then so I am going to make sure that I have this apartment prepared for the Winter time this year. I just took some time while all of us were in the fall to be sure that I tightened up the apartment as much as possible… A narrow apartment keeps the Heating plus A/C heating in and all that freezing out.
