All my cooling system money is tied up

I want to have 20K shares before it takes off and just sit on that for a few years if that is what it takes.

I’ve sunk pretty much every dime I have now into this EV company stock and am hoping for a miracle with the business. I guess I shouldn’t call it a miracle because it hit the $8 mark last year before they even started making cars and if it hits the $6 mark I would be back to where I want to be. I feel now that they have begun production of the cars the price is going to find a home in the $5 range pretty soon. Pretty soon meaning within a year or two, as my HVAC rep friend was telling me. I am going to try and buy more shares while the price is low so that if it hits the $5 mark I would be all set. Most of my smart thermostat sales commission is in this stock and I don’t have much more right now, but if the local business gives me more hours then I will buy more stock. I want to have 20K shares before it takes off and just sit on that for a few years if that is what it takes. I can do more duct sealing jobs and use that money to buy more, but the heating dealership would need to give me more hours first for that to happen. I had just 1650 shares last year when I started out so at least I have more and hopefully the price goes up to where it was a year ago. The new contractor in town bought 50,000 shares with his heating and cooling repair money so let us see what happens.

Working both the cooling tech and music jobs

I’ve been wearing two hats for the past year now, running my normal routine for the company down the street and trying to get our band off the ground. Spending money last night on plays for our new song will hopefully paint a better picture of how people like the song. I think if you have a really and truly great song and you pay to get a big chunk of plays it could explode as people would help spread the word, at least in theory this is how it seems. Maybe nothing would happen, but my heating dealer said that if the song is catchy and good it could spread like wildfire just like the HVAC rep who used to work at the local business did with his band’s song. He bought 50K plays for the song and within a few months they had 100 million plays, but that could be a once in a lifetime thing. Anyway, today I am going to work on the furnace a bit in the basement with my gramps to see if the filter or something else is causing the restricted airflow throughout all of the ductwork in the house. I guess it could be a problem with the fan or the fan motor, but we will have to look at it first and see if we can pinpoint the issue. My gramps was a heating and cooling worker and is really good at diagnosing problems with HVAC systems, so I think we will figure out the issue with the electric heater in no time.

Just bought 10K plays from the new contractor

I just dished out $33 for 10,000 plays of our song just to test out the response on it.

It is pretty wild that you can do this in the first place, but for that many plays it is worth it for me to gauge how good a song of ours is.

I think this 32nd uploaded song is going to be a winner, maybe not a hit, but I think people will like it. But we need to wait maybe a week to see what the feedback is and whether they really like it or not. Heating up with each new song, my HVAC rep bandmate and I are improving with each one basically, but I would like to see what the majority thinks of the songs. If this works then when we get some really good songs we will buy the million play package for $1600 and really test it out. My dad’s HVAC business gave us a chunk of money after he sold the local business and I will use some of it for things that could help our band. If I really want to go nuts I could buy 10 million plays for $10K, which could kickstart things if the songs are good enough. The HVAC contractor told me that if we have four or five really good songs, those 10 million plays could turn into 100 million in no time by people sharing them. If this works then I could cut down hours with my heating technician work and focus solely on the band and the music.

Furnace filter

Happy to be cleaning my furnace filter

It is almost 2pm and I am finally starting to wake up a bit.

I guess my body is healing itself and using my energy to do so, which will hopefully be done by tomorrow so I have energy to drum and sing for a few hours.

We usually play for three hours and I need a lot of energy to do that, so having a good night of sleep tonight is important for me to do well tomorrow in the band. I think we are starting to get our sound down and am feeling hopeful about the future. Furnace filter cleaning is on the agenda today as my HVAC system needs a little TLC before the winter comes and freezes us all once again. I bet this is going to be a long cold winter and I am looking forward to some nice nights with my love in front of our fireplace. Winter is a nice time here because the local businesses get slow and the whole town goes into this hibernation mode, and I get to spend a lot of time with my lady in our flat. We run the heating system some but we really rely on a gas fireplace to keep us warm on the coldest of nights, which is nice because I love watching the hypotonic fire dance on the fake logs we have in the fireplace. We bought it a few years ago and I bet we have already used the thing 500 times so far. The heating technician who installed it did a great job too.

One hit wonder heating up

Well, so far out of 32 songs we have one hit that seems to have sticking power.

  • I guess that is about par for the course when making a good song.

Actually, we have made about 100 songs so far but a lot of them are just throwaway songs because we are trying new sounds and not all of them sound so good. I’ve uploaded 32 songs so far and one of them is a really good one that people really seem to enjoy listening to. I wish I could tell you but I don’t want to promote non HVAC industry things here. It has kind of a dark carnival song that has a beach vibe mixed in with it. I think in a few years we will have our sound down and will be able to make a really cool album with some good beach vibes by a punk beach band. We both work as HVAC techs and do a lot of heating and cooling system work during the week and really love having music as an outlet to get it all out. I didn’t get into the music world until about seven years ago when I started drumming again after many years off. When my dad was a local contractor he got me a five piece drum set which I used a little bit, but then I got interested in HVAC systems and changed directions towards the heating and cooling industry. I wish I stuck with that drumming back then because I would be a lot better at it now than I am.

Cleaning three mini split a/c units

I am slowly pushing through the workday today, but it is not going to be easy to get this mountain of work done with the little energy I have today. I am happy that my bandmate can’t play tonight because my body still needs more rest. I need to avoid the beach later because those clowns will be asking me to play some games in the sand and I just don’t have the energy to do so. I will probably opt for a slow bike ride down the coast instead as that is a lot easier on my body. Heating and cooling work are a lot easier to do when your body isn’t sore, so not playing ball and doing more air con work would be a good choice. I have a problem with beach volleyball, as I can’t seem to let go of the sport even though my body is falling apart. I have to go to the local business next week to get my shoulders looked at, but cooling them down in the sea seems to help somewhat. I have to get them MRI’d soon to see what is causing them to dislocate so much when I am playing the sport. I have to do three jobs on mini split a/c units soon and need to be ready for that because it takes me and the other HVAC worker a few days to get the jobs all done. I want my shoulders to be in good shape before we work on them so it is more enjoyable to do.

Ready for some natural weather conditions control

Nothing beats being able to ride just your bike each afternoon to get around town. This is something I couldn’t do while living in the States and I really like the fact that I don’t have to drive anymore. I guess it is going to add some years onto my life not having to sit in a car for 100 hours each month. Instead, I am riding my bike around neighborhood and getting fresh air and exercise each afternoon. I really need to walk more though, because I usually ride my bike everywhere. Most of the local corporations are a five minute walk from my flat, including the heating and cooling corporation store where I work part time each week. I bet that I could ride my bike anywhere in neighborhood here within about ten minutes max. The cooling corporation has a sale next week on a/c component systems and I am going to walk down there with my dolly and see if I can buy a small mini split a/c component unit for my living room. I want one of those units that fits in the window so I can cool down my room without running the main Heating and Air Conditioning system. They sell a really efficient one for a few hundred bucks and I may buy it so that I can save on my power bills each month. I just got a power bill for the heating of my flat over the past two months and it really wasn’t that bad, just a bit over $150. So maybe the small a/c component unit won’t make a big difference after all.

Nothing beats being able to ride just your bike each day to get around town.

This is something I couldn’t do while living in the States and I truly like the fact that I don’t have to drive anymore. I suppose it is going to add some years onto my life not having to sit in a automobile for 100 hours each month. Instead, I am riding my bike around neighborhood and getting fresh air and exercise each day. I unquestionably need to walk more though, because I usually ride my bike everywhere. Most of the local contractors are a five minute walk from my flat, including the heating and cooling corporation store where I labor part time each week. I bet that I could ride my bike anywhere in neighborhood here within about ten minutes max. The cooling business has a sale next week on a/cs and I am going to walk down there with my dolly and see if I can buy a small mini split a/c unit for my bedroom. I want one of those units that fits in the window so I can cool down my room without running the main Heating, Ventilation plus A/C system. They sell a truly efficient one for a few hundred bucks and I may buy it so that I can save on my power bills each month. I just got a power bill for the heating of my flat over the past two months and it definitely wasn’t that bad, just a bit over $150. So maybe the small a/c unit won’t make a giant difference after all.

Hungry for lunch at the local business

Some people call it lunch here, however eating a croissant plus a cup of Sprite is more of a treat for me. They have these mini chocolate croissants here in the bakery, three for a dollar, plus they taste so good it is taxing to stop at three. I only have them about once every four or five months because they put weight on you certainly hastily if you eat them too often. I see some people eating them every single morning when they stop in for coffee, however if I did that I would be immense like a commercial air conditioner in a mall. I had the same problem when living in the immense city near here with the pizza slices, however they tasted so good plus were so simple to eat that they became a problem for me. The local business would sell a slice for $1 plus you could rest in air conditioned luxury while you ate your slice in peace. I haven’t had much pizza at all anymore after moving from that city, plus it is a good thing because I was gaining a lot of weight from the slices. I do a lot of cooling system repair nowadays for some of the local businesses, plus it keeps me on my feet a lot, which also keeps the weight off of me. The more I walk plus transfer around the lighter I get, so I am going to keep moving till the afternoon I die haha. Okay, time to buy a HEPA filter plus change the thing.
