Hi Friends.. here by the seashore in New Jersey it is 6:10AM and I've been up for an hour having gone to bed yesterday at 3:30 in the afternoon. It is 24°F and quiet and still outside. The Peepers are silent since the temperatures have plunged this week. Birds are also quiet. The weather manipulators need to learn that it's not nice to fool mother nature and although I love going outside and breathing in the crisp, clean morning air, I realize they are monkeying around again.
Air quality here by the ocean is always perfect and the winds blowing off shore keep it that way. When I travel inland or to other places I can feel and breathe in the lesser air quality. But now on to Tuesday 4!!

Welcome to another Tuesday 4 by Toni Taddeo.
Let's talk about light, okay? You light up my life.. shine a light in the darkness, Miller Light. All kinds of light but how about at home?
1. Are you afraid of the dark? Is night or day your favorite time?
Not really afraid of the dark but cautious when walking around in the dark. I don't like to be on the beach in the dark at all!
I like both day and night. There are so many good things about each of them.
2. Do you have night lights in your home?
I have a night light in the bathroom . There is one on my kitchen stove as well but I never use it.
3. How low do you set your air conditioning? Do you adjust it through the day?
In summer I will set it to 68°F on the hottest days. I do adjust it throughout the day and also turn it off .
In Winter I set it from 69 to 71°F and sometimes 72 but I also adjust it through the day . If it is extremely cold outside, I set a large stock pot to simmer all day on the stove top which increases humidity and keeps the house warm. By the way, if you have a flu or cold, keep the stock put on to help keep your lungs and head clear. Using humidifiers during illness will help you heal much faster.
4. Do you keep any outdoor or indoor lights on all night?
Yes, I have a spot light and rear door light that are on all night long. I have lights in the front yard as well. My backyard is forest so, I have a light to shine there. I have a swing arm light over my sink that stays on all night long.
Thank you for joining in and as always if you have a topic or questions you would like to see on Tuesday 4, let me know here in comments or in comments at Tuesday 4 (link above). Your participation is appreciated so much.
Wow! You like it COLD! Our heat comes on when it gets down to 68 in the house! LOL. Our AC is set on 76. But again, our AC runs almost year round, even on some balmy days, because of the humidity. Right now we have to keep it going because of the smoke outside due to the wildfires in the region around us. We are okay here, but just a LOT of smoke. I do like the night time, to look at the moon and stars, but I prefer the daytime so I can see what's around me better. And yes, we have nightlights throughout the house. Thank you for this "deLIGHTful" post!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your answers. If I lived in a house by the ocean or forest, I too would like to have a lot of lights outside.
