Living without a temperature control system

Think small, people, I cannot stress this enough.

In America the two of us need everything to be big, to be powerful; All of us are a nation of hoarders as well as collectors, who need bigger as well as bigger houses to hold all of the pointless stuff that the two of us accumulate.

After my divorce, I went through a major “purge” phase, but the funny thing is I never got out of it. After getting rid of 95% of my possessions, I felt no need to get new ones. I began a more spartan life, starting with the easy, austere lake house by the lake I moved into. I don’t have a central air conditioner, but I have l earned that I don’t need one, natural ventilation as well as the winds of the woods will keep my location temperate for most of the year. It may stay around 73 or 85 degrees for weeks on end, but once you get used to residing without A/C those temps aren’t so bad. For the winters I have a small wood burning gas furnace at the edge of my kitchen. I also have an electric stove for cooking, but this gas furnace is outdated enough that it can be used for cooking, for heating water, for doing laundry, as well as keeping the location warm. I also have a space heater, just in case, but I haven’t had to use that in a couple of years thanks to my outdated stove. The biggest adjustment to residing without a temperature control plan is just getting over yourself as well as losing the habit of insisting on perfect comfort at all times.
