With things being so tough during the past few years, we have had to work on a tighter budget at home.
We only make room to spend money on things we need like HVAC system maintenance and putting food on the table.
I even decided to sell my car so that I could just focus on taking public transportation. It wasn’t such a huge deal to me because I hardly ever travel anywhere anyway. At least, I didn’t think that traveling around in a car was more important than our survival at home. When I started taking public transportation regularly, in a way I regretted making such a choice. It was because while riding on the bus, the AC system never seemed to be working. I asked the bus driver a few times to crank the AC system, but the driver said the AC was as high as it could go. It was hard to believe, but he showed me the temperature control settings and he wasn’t lying. Eventually, my wife bought me something called a cooling jacket. This jacket had built-in temperature control to provide air conditioning so that you actually feel cool no matter where you go. I thought people would think I was crazy for wearing a jacket in the middle of the summer, but when I used the thing, I didn’t care what people thought anymore. The cooling that the jacket provides is amazing! I seriously can wear this jacket all day with the awesome cooling it provides. The only thing is that the battery lasts for 8 hours. Usually that’s enough for me to take care of everything at work and then come back home using the cooling jack until I get back home where the AC feels nice.
