Springtime and Temperature Fluxuations
I adore the cool afternoons and crip air of Fall.
To be honest, I honestly adore every season of the year except for the Spring.
Springtime used to be my number one time of the year because of the start of current life and all of the excitement that Springtime brings. My adore for Spring stopped when my fiance and I moved way up North to live near his parents. The Springs in the North can be described in one word “crazy.” One afternoon it’s boiling out and you suppose Summer is nigh, but the next afternoon, it’s snowing. My poor dwelling can’t take all the temperature swings. The furnace is on for two afternoons then the air conditioner is on for a week then back to the furnace. It typically seems like a silly unending cycle. Not only are the hot and cold temperatures wacked, but the heavy amounts of rain make everything muddy and damp. I have to run my dehumidifier 24/7 during the Springtime in order to keep the floors from getting damp and slippery. My fiance decided that instead of having to turn the furnace on so often during the silly Spring months, we should use small electric heaters in our bedroom and just dress boiling during the afternoon. My friend and I tried that for a week, and by the end of that week, he turned the furnace back on. It amazes me how the temperature can go from the upper thirties to the seventies and back down again all in one week. I know it’s simply a part of life for us, but I wish we could find a way to keep the dwelling at the right temperature without having to switch between the heating system and air conditioner all Spring long.
