"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all."
- Emily Dickinson "Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost." - John Quincy Adams "Stand for something or you will fall for anything. Today's mighty oak is yesterday's nut that held its ground." - Rosa Parks "Not voting is not a protest. It is a surrender." - Keith Ellison "With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts." - Eleanor Roosevelt "Advice from a pumpkin: be well-rounded, get plenty of sunshine, give thanks for life's bounty, have thick skin, keep growing, be outstanding in your field,
think big. - Anonymous And ... before the happy holidays begin and the snow flies, eliminate the clutter and chaos in your life by getting and staying organized. "Ceiling fans are an efficient option for keeping cool. The breeze from them can help you feel up to 4 degrees F cooler. That may not be enough on very hot days, but if you have A/C you can set your thermostat higher and stay comfortable.
According to Energy Star by raising your thermostat only 2 degrees and using a ceiling fan, you can lower cooling costs by up to 14 percent." Source: Consumer Reports, September 2024 As you know warm air rises so in the winter you want to turn your ceiling fan blade to spin clockwise (left to right) so that the warm air blows down. In the summer, turn the ceiling fan blade to spin counterclockwise so air is pushed down and the room has a cool breeze. To check, stand under the ceiling fan and see if the blades are turning from right to left (counterclockwise).
