Supplipmenting Heat
I grew up in beautiful South America where my parents were missionaries.
I had a pretty cool childhood filled with lots of adventures that multiple children don’t get to experience.
I typically thought that I would marry someone from the States and move back south to where my parents were. Well, I did end up going to university in the States and marrying the person of my dreams, but we didn’t move back down to South America with my family. Todd, my fiance, had a honestly good task in the States, so we decided to stay in the U.S. My friend and I live in a honestly cute neighborhood way up North, and I adore it! Something that totally hit me off guard though was getting used to the cold. I don’t remember even once having to use a heating system as a child. Our dwelling didn’t even have a furnace, and everything ran on electricity, but having to pay a gas and electric bill was super current to me. During the winter, our gas bill is outrageously high, so we decided to try and supplement some electric heat. My friend and I have solar panels on our dwelling that make it much cheaper for us to use electricity than gas. My friend and I bought two electric space heaters, and they have saved us so much money, and the dwelling is much warmer than it has ever been, however living way up North definitely has its cons, and one of them is the cold, but we have learned to stay quite boiling and adore even the easily coldest winter season months!
