It's Cold In Here!

My house is freezing!  I just received last month's power bill in the mail, and is was $200.  Granted, we have had some cold nights, and a snowstorm, but still.  I hate spending so much money on heat during the winter.  We live in a double wide mobile home, which is not very well insulated.  I asked Junior about putting clear plastic over the windows to try and keep the heat in, but he doesn't want to.  He said it might be better to look into cellular window treatments, which will do the same thing as the plastic yet look a whole lot better.   So, I guess I will be doing some research online, and hopefully within the next moth or so we can have something on the windows to keep the cold out and the heat in.  Without something, I have a feeling our next power bill will be even higher.

Staying Cool In This Heat

It has been so hot here the past few days. My garden is protesting by developing yellow leaves, no matter how much I water it. I hope I don't lose my cucumbers, because they seem to be doing the worst. I feel bad for people who have to work outside in this heat. I bet Construction Trailers Nashville is doing awesome business right now, being able to provide air conditioning to construction workers. Okay, so maybe just the builders get to hang out in the trailers, but as hot and humid as it's been, I bet the nice ones have been offering some relief to their workers. I'm just glad I don't have to work out in the heat, and that Junior doesn't, either.
