My neighbor was outside the other day and so I walked over to chat.
My associate and I don’t see each other often due to our hectic schedules so it is nice to catch up every once in a while.
I cherish hearing about his teenagers and all the things they are up to. His child is in the middle of planning a birthday and life is actually exciting for them, but when My associate and I sat down to have a glass of Starbucks Latte he seemed really distracted. I asked his if anything was wrong and he told me that he was concerned about this coming winter. It was only September so I thought it was a little early to start thinking of the snow and ice my buddy and I would be having. I tried saying to his to just prefer the rest of Summer but he told me that he didn’t know how they were going to heat their house. I asked if there was a problem with the Heating and A/C system because I have a fantastic supplier that I work with, but, he said that they were having a really taxing time finding firewood that they could afford. It seems that the prices have gone up over 25% since last year and the delivery fee doubled from the guy they consistently had bring it before, and i asked his how much he really saved by burning wood and he said that until recently, they saved almost half on their weekly expenses. Their Heating and A/C system was only used as a backup and the cost of the wood made heating much more satisfactory. Now, they were going to have to reconsider having the Heating and A/C system replaced to a more efficient on so that they would use less wood.
