At the end of the day, I for sure like coming home to see my family.
No matter what sort of mood or what sort of drama is happening, I love being with them each evening and any chance that I get.
But if I’m honest, that’s not what I’m thinking about those last few hours of the work day. My thoughts turn to the heating and cooling in my home during those hours of the day and not my family. That’s just me being honest. That said, it’s not like I’m inside the zone controlled HVAC of some fancy downtown office building. Nope, I’m out in the elements day in and day out. Now, I’m very lucky to live and work in a region where we don’t have a tough winter. While the heat pump does get called upon for HVAC heating, I’m not dealing with a bunch of snow or sub zero temperatures. Yet, coming home after being outside during a cold snap sure is nice because the smart thermostat in my house is right on time and has it nice and toasty for me. But it’s definitely the HVAC cooling in the summer that I pine for shortly after lunchtime. There are days where just being inside the construction site trailer with its little ductless heat pump just isn’t enough. So coming home on those days is the best thing. It’s almost indescribable what it feels like to simply walk inside the HVAC cooling set to just where I like it. Just don’t tell my family because I like to have them thinking that the smile on my face is really all about them.
