Can’t download app to control thermostat

I’m so glad to exist in this period of history.

I can’t even imagine living in an earlier generation, where you couldn’t pull up your phone to ask a random medical question, track down your friends in real time with GPS, or check your weather conditions at home from hundreds of miles away.

All of these advancements truly make life easier and so much more informative. However, there are some major pitfalls with how technologically linked our lives are these days. It turns out that when one technology is highly reliant on another, it really can bring the whole system down. This is exactly what happened last week when a big storm blew through and disrupted our thermostat programming at home. You see, we recently had a smart thermostat installed with our HVAC program, and we didn’t exactly know how it operated yet. It was working fine, supplying us with fresh and cool air inside, despite the heavy, hot and humid air outside. As this massive storm blew through, we suffered a power outage and suddenly the AC stopped. As the power flickered back on, we realized that the new smart thermostat had gone offline; it was no longer connected to the home wifi or the AC unit. We decided that the only way to reconnect the temperature control panel with the air handling equipment was to use the app. However, when we attempted to access the smart thermostat application, we realized that it wasn’t working either. The storm had knocked down a cable line, leaving us without working Wifi. We couldn’t access the app, locate a wifi signal, or connect our thermostat to the air conditioning system manually. In the end, we were stranded without any indoor temperature control for three days thanks to modern technology.

Ex has ridiculous visitation stipulations

She has decided that we must have heating and cooling equipment that’s less than 3 years old, under manufacturer warranty, and explicit routine service records from a reputable HVAC dealership.

My boyfriend has quite a past, and I can’t lie about how intimidating it can be. While I’ve lived most of my life as a single woman, he’s pretty much always been in serious relationships. In fact, he has been married before and has a son with his ex. Obviously this is a huge part of his life, and therefore has become a crucial part of mine, as well. I consider his son to be my own, and I love getting to spend time with the little guy. The only thing is, his mom is a total nightmare. She makes it very difficult to see him, let alone spend quality time together. Currently, she is fighting a legal battle to prevent our 60 day summer visit. She has come up with every hurdle possible, including demands for his bedroom setup, our dog’s health records, and even reports on our home ventilation plan. She suddenly insists that there are qualifications for our indoor air temperature control system, and has begun threatening to refuse visitation if we don’t supply purchase and service records for all of our HVAC equipment. She has decided that we must have heating and cooling equipment that’s less than 3 years old, under manufacturer warranty, and explicit routine service records from a reputable HVAC dealership. Further, she has gone on to insist that now we need to invest in an industrial grade air purification system. Despite the fact that this air handling equipment costs over $3000, she thinks it’s a reasonable provision. She has no legal grounds for these ventilation demands, but we sure have learned a lot about HVAC systems since hearing her continual assertions.

I always hear people talking about how they wish they could travel more freely in their lives.

I totally understand where they’re coming from – it’s awesome to take a chop from life plus go off on an adventure to see some sights – despite the fact that I also don’t feel they’re certainly realistic about what traveling entails.

As someone who travels often for work, I can tell you that it’s not all that it’s chalked up to be. Most likely, you won’t be flying first class. You won’t be staying in some beachfront villa with a private beach. And it’s unlikely that your photo gallery is filled with insta-perfect endpoint photos unless you devote endless hours to curating the perfect picture. In my experience, traveling has been a jarring plus unpleasant experience, for the most part. In the past two days, for example, I’ve existed across numerous climates plus air hot plus cold temperatures. I started in the sizzling plus humid sub-tropical south only 48 hours ago. The temperature was balmy plus warm, plus there was a stillness to the air. A morning later, the temperature had dropped about 40 degrees in my current location. There was a lot of wind plus freezing moisture on the ground adding an extra chill to the air, plus my buddy and I were nervously changing the indoor air temperature degree by degree. Flash forward to today; we’ve arrived at our final endpoint plus the outdoor high is -14 degrees. We’ve put on all our heavy winter season clothes plus tried every trick in the book to sizzling up on this trip, but nothing can compare to simply existing in a moderately sizzling environment plus staying there.

Rich home radiant heated floor

He graciously told me that he recently had his central boiler updated with radiant heated flooring plus shrugged it off like it didn’t matter

I am being fair when I say that I grew up in poverty plus have developed a lot of classist beliefs from my early years. I do not find wealth to be beautiful or something to envy; instead I feel that it is disgusting plus counterproductive to civilization. When I meet someone plus they reveal a rich family or lack of student debt, I have a tendency to back away abruptly. Yes, my opinions are absolutely pretty hard-lined. That being said, I recently had one of the most charming experiences with a fantastically wealthy person who I met through my work. He invited me over to discuss further company ventures together, plus I abruptly fell in care about with his lifestyle. More certainally, I abruptly fell in care about with his central heating plus cooling system that ran his lifestyle at home. When I first walked into his home, I couldn’t help but notice that the air felt cleaner plus more consistent than other sites. I normally feel a lot of upsetting drafts plus freezing air pockets when I walk around in forced air heating plus cooling systems, but somehow there was a calm plus constant quality to the air in his home unlike anything I’ve felt before. I spent an hour or so playing it cool plus pretending that I wasn’t distracted by the high quality heat that surrounded my entire body, but eventually I had to ask how his indoor air felt so amazing. He graciously told me that he recently had his central boiler updated with radiant heated flooring plus shrugged it off like it didn’t matter. Meanwhile, I went house cursing myself for my failures that prevented me from becoming rich enough for radiant radiant floors.
