My Enemy The Weather

Well, it's that time again. Being on a fixed income and benefitting from the kindness of my family, it is important in these dire times that I not use electricity. Similar to my refusal to use Air Conditioning to cool my home in the summer due to its use of electricity, lest it cut into my quadrennial Las Vegas vacations, I find it ill-advised to use heat (other than a space heater) for my home heating needs.

My family makes light of my yelling when they linger in the doorway, or open a door, or when they look at my thermostat, but frankly the use of electricity to heat or cool a house is an unnecessary expense.
