Gooooood morning, Mr Dan!
Mine is produced in my building with a boiler that runs on heating oil. Since the boiler serves the whole building, its cost is just rolled into our rents. I do know that ConEd (NYC's energy utility company) generates steam for parts of Manhattan, but they're no longer expanding the network.
I taped all the gaps around the AC and have blackout shades. When it gets hot, I don't mess around. It'll still be 80 degrees in my apartment when I get home, but at least its not 90!
What's going on in your little lake town? Recent crime spree?Gooooood morning, Mr Dan!
I miss me some you!
It’s been some loooong days! Left the house at 4am Monday, got home at 9:15pm. Yesterday was 4am to 6:30pm & today is goina be....ugh. Tonight’s docket is three times longer than usual. We’re goina kick some ass & power through it!!!
Didn't know that. Very interesting. This explains the famous NYC thermostat - opening or closing the window. When we lived on UES our apartment was the first in the line of the pipe. There were times I would turn on the AC to balance out the heat coming off the pipe in a middle of a winter. There is a winter "urban heat island" effect, and it's not from asphalt, but from the heat coming off of buildings and open windows as people try to regulate temps.Steam heat here is awesome btw. The system was built based on an archaic code that states that everything must stay warm with the windows open during the winter. During the Spanish Flu outbreak, it was thought that fresh air helped flush out the virus. So people had their windows open in the middle of January. City passed an ordinance shortly thereafter stating that the system must be able to provide that kind of heat. No one bothers to retrofit these old buildings, so I usually have the radiators off and the windows open, except during a blizzard or polar vortex.
Fancy that. Monday was the one week mark for Gabrielle. I say good morning to her every day.Yesterday was one month since Vida has been home!!! If you don’t blow your baby a kiss more often than not, you’re lacking love & need to work on that.
@Smarrtazz is it here yet? is it here yet??
I realize it is a little early...but since I will probably be busy all day, I figured that I would just give you a shout out now!! Congrats on getting your beautiful (and very tough) Lagertha!!
Having just recently watching the Deadpool movie...I didn't realize it was a comedy. LOL Monica and I laughed and laughed and laughed all through that movie.A belated good morning and hello to everyone!
Heat pumps are supposed to have an "emergency heat" setting for these sorts of scenarios...but for whatever reason, the thermostat didn't have that setting.
She's probably baking cookies for the driverMorning Jeep Peeps! Cant' wait for the pics of Lagertha this morning! woohoo! I just wish Trina would get excited about it.
