Got a whole house fan

Got a whole house fan

I got a whole house fan. I’ve wanted once since 2016 but the lady was having a fit if I didn’t spend every $$ on her. Finally I got it. The idea is it sucks in air from your windows, and out the attic. I added 2 vents too.

Unfortunately it went from $1000 to $2400 during that time. I haven’t had a chance to test it during really hot weather because we got a discount for installing it during the cold times. But the air does FINALLY flow into the house when before it never did without having the garage door partly open and the fire door to garage open. But then the cats would get out.

I’ve hated the house for 10+ years cuz I spend all my time with shirt off cuz it’s too hot. I tried running the air at 77 for 1 month and it was $780 for 2 months electricity. Can’t even cool it enough to be livable and this is NEAR THE BEACH.

Jigsaw Puzzles

2nd puzzle completed. I really like this one. I got it on Amazon. 1000 pieces.

This one is done and put up. I really love this one. I like the ones with lots of writing.

I’m not sure what the ideal number of pieces is. 1000 was super easy. 2,000 took weeks. 1500? I did this one mostly on Christmas day.

I was able to glue it with the glue listed below. Then I use poster puddle to hold it up. Son: “Is our whole house going to be covered in puzzles?” (better than hoarder junk).

Solar

Solar

Building on and on. This new solar control I have sucks so bad I don’t think it even shows how much V is coming in.

The $1000 200AH batteries are now $157 for 100 AH.

I have 500w panels, now the second one is going to be 200-300w.

But now I’m not using the power. I need to find more things to power. I have the fish tank, light, Christmas tree, and anything nearby.

Fucking Walmart

Fucking Walmart

My Walmart experience. All I needed was a car battery. I go there and they’re bolted down to prevent stealing. I hit every “help me button in Auto parts area. I hit other random ones. I asked 2 employees to send someone. I sat there for 25 mins. I finally CALL the damn store and they sent a guy. The battery says $109, I get to the front and its’ $179. I left it in the cart and YOLOed out. Fuck them. What a nightmare. Then I go to Oreily and get one for $140.
