I have to say that this summer time was the most comfortable since we chose off grid living.
Living off the grid has been something of a lifeline pursuit that we both made happen.
It has taken a mixture of luck and persistence for any of this to happen. Even with all the organization, understanding and planning, it still comes down to money. Before moving, I worked for a commercial Heating & Air Conditioning company. While I was thrilled to have honed my skills there, that’s as far as it went. As you might imagine, I’m not exactly a corporate sort of woman. But I had to have the currency. Then, just as I was thinking I’d never get there, a close relation passed on, leaving me sufficient cash as inheritance. This would be enough to get me through the final stages of living off the grid. This plan has been a long time coming and finally we were able to start working on the plan. All we needed was to install satellite WIFI. This would help with the network signal that would ensure I can still work. The other thing was putting in a ductless heat pump this Springtime. An old pal of mine works as a Heating & Cooling professional so she would be instrumental in helping me install it. Of course, I currently use a wood stove for heating and it has been doing well. But having that ductless heat pump for winters and a good a/c for summer time would work more conveniently. I am glad to start this journey finally.
