Reflectix - Shiny Side Out in the Summer and In In the Winter
I put up reflectix on my bedroom window last year, because I have a lot of heating and cooling issues in that room. I didn't realize you should turn the reflectix in the summer and winter. Although, really the hot westerly sun in the summer is a scorcher on that window, so most likely I will just keep the shiny side out. Anything to keep things simple is my motto.
Comcast Cable is coming again today. Our TV has completely stopped working. All we get is the blue screen.
My poor dad is losing it and he's taking me with him. He got a new paper-shredder the other day - and today I find he's been shredding papers that we need from our file cabinet - and throwing out the folders - and he does NOT remember doing it. Somebody, please come take me away now. He has promised to not go in the files any more - but, we know he will. Every single day, he either moves something or throws something else away. He can never admit it was him and usually says he does not remember. I feel so helpless.
