I’ll be staying with the heat pump from now on
Coming home was the best thing ever. You don’t realize how great you have it somewhere until you leave sometimes. That’s for sure what happened when I traded our lovely winters for the harsh ones up north. But I moved for love if that is any sort of answer to why I chose the gas furnace over the heat pump. I met my this woman and we fell in love. She got transferred up north and I wanted to go with her. Since I work from the air conditioning of my home, I was free to follow her. So I did. At first, it seemed like the most amazing adventure. I was in love for the first time in my life and I was moving to a part of the country I hadn’t even visited. We moved up there at the beginning of summer which made me feel like I had made the best decision in the world. The summers I was used to meant being inside some form of central air conditioning during the peak heating hours of the day. So I was in heaven with that northern summer. It got warm, almost hot during the day so you could use a bit of air conditioning. But by evening, it cooled off to the point that I actually put on a long sleeve shirt. That might have been the first time I ever did that during the summer. But I won’t soon forget that first cold wind in October. The next thing I knew, it was so cold for so long that all I could do was stay inside with the gas furnace cranking. Needless to say, it just didn’t work out and I’m back in the land of the heat pump.
