Happenings

 Ok so, since I don't know how to professionally organize my photos and make them look all cute and write on them, you just have some random pictures with captions.

Lately, where we live is a lot colder than where we grew up and sometimes colder than The Bubble.  Our apartment doesn't know how to keep us warm and I am getting really frustrated.  I spent all day at home yesterday in sweats experimenting and trying to figure out and teach our apartment how to keep us warm.  What I discovered is that the Heater only puts out HOT air if the thermostat is set for a temperature that is warmer than the actual room.... which makes sense right but what I am getting at is that it decides to put out just regular air if the room is the temperature the thermostat is set to... which means that it turns on every 190 seconds or so and stays on for 265 seconds or so (counting was done when I was trying to sleep).... That is A LOT of wasted energy.  What I want is a thermostat that will only tell the heater to pump HOT air if the temperature is 2 degrees away... that way it only has to pump hot air and not worry about pumping regular air...
Other problems I have discovered is that air  comes in from everywhere... the windows in all rooms and the door with the door being the biggest culprit.
Side note ::we keep getting whiffs of weed... We do not smoke anything, have not ever smoked anything, will not smoke anything, will not store or buy anything related to smoking and YET are plagued with the sweet smell of weed and the weird smell of tobacco::

So, last night, we bought a space heater (just a $20 one from walmart)

A special log for the fire place (it said it would burn for 4 hours and we thought that meant it would put out major amounts of heat the whole time... Fire lasted 4 hours BUT major heat only lasted 2)

 We taped  the seam around the door closed (during the day, I taped the windows and shoved socks in the tracks.  When we went to bed, we closed the door and had the space heater and I had my first countless night.

Just Random Pictures Of Life

I pulled a toupee out of the shower drain.  It was having a hard time draining so showering was also a foot bath.  So, I got out a metal hanger and it just kept coming out.  If you remember this one a while back in the Bubble and a bathroom sink.... This one was a lot worse... I think someone washed their extensions out......  It was gross... I gagged. 

 This is a real sign in front of a church that is on our way to our church.. Just thought i would catch a picture because it is soo fitting.

 Pennsylvania's first snow that we were a part of.

The worlds longest arch bridge I believe.... I'm serious..

And just a nice picture of me taken by me to show what I look like when I have been in the sun for a while.  My freckles show out REAL dark and defined... I usually like my freckles.. they give me character... BUT... I would like to not have sooooo many... I want to look growed up... can I put them away and get them back out when I am 50 and want to look young again??? please??
