(Approximately the same number of times we used our fireplace.)Alliehttp://www.allieseverydayadventures.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710921900753150958.post-1041345595464046752014-10-24T10:20:21.867-04:002014-10-24T10:20:21.867-04:00Oh man, I am with you on the ceiling fans.

In the dead of winter (which is not really that cold, but whatever) I sleep piled under blankets but with the ceilng fan on, because I need moving air on my face. I'm weird. :)Stephanienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710921900753150958.post-9597074262812231992014-10-23T15:56:10.739-04:002014-10-23T15:56:10.739-04:00I have to say I'm jealous. I think THIS might ...I have to say I'm jealous. I think THIS might be why Jordan and I continue to have arguments about turning on the air conditioning vs. opening the windows. And THIS is why my parents (in Texas) have the windows open a lot and Jordan thinks it's weird. It's just how I grew up! Opening the windows is the solution to any problem. I hate having them closed. You will get used to it, and you will love it.

We'll see how that works out here!Alliehttp://www.allieseverydayadventures.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710921900753150958.post-12208845341812305672014-10-22T14:56:11.068-04:002014-10-22T14:56:11.068-04:00Giggling at this.

After all, that's why there's the Winter/Summer directional switch on those things!<br /><br />And opening windows. Maybe one week out of the year, total. Our windows were painted shut when we bought the house (because people down here don't open their windows, duh) but we were required to un-stick them by the (Yankee) bank. <br /><br />Enjoy your new surroundings!Jennifer Walkernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710921900753150958.post-7402553352425099482014-10-22T11:15:29.397-04:002014-10-22T11:15:29.397-04:00Glad you're enjoying new experiences together!...Glad you're enjoying new experiences together!
