When I worked at Nordstrom ages ago, I was made the Holiday section manager. It was a total disaster, half of the team quit the night before Black Friday and I had to run up and down to the outdoor food section and the upstairs gift section to help customers. The one saving grace was all of the holiday stuff I got on discount, including this angel woof and poof which Kim always calls a “puff and stuff”, we laugh about it every holiday because when I lived at her house, they were everywhere. 😂 And that little sign is from our favorite Christmas movie.
Most of the tree decorations I got from eBay, funky 70s craft ornaments but the star was a gift, and the Bud and Minnie ornaments from my favorite pottery store on eBay. The bootie and va jay jay are from Robyn 😂, and the crèche is something I got in Seattle ages ago with an angel from my mom’s chapel in our old home on watch.
I took a long, hot shower, washed my hair and started to cry when I realized the hair on my legs is starting to come back.
It feels good getting into the spirit. Fenced in grief every day, adding delightful things like going to the Fairmont Hotel for Christmas tea, a famous thing to do in the city I’ve never done before. Tomorrow, maybe driving to Nordstrom to get fitted for a bra! Perhaps even buying some cute ones on sale. Talking to friends. Snuggling sweet Buddy who just wants to cuddle. It’s been a good day.

anniversary trip to the mountains
Friday we left work a little early to drive down near Shenandoah National Park. We stopped in Sperryville to go by a brewery we used to like to go to after hikes in the area. They were in a totally different building, and when I asked when they moved they said October 2020! Which shows how long it's been since our hiking days! Yikes - we used to casually do hikes that required hours-long drives to the trailhead just on a regular weekend, but now we've fallen out of the habit. We'd both like to do it more, and were excited to hike this weekend.
After beers we got pizza (at a restaurant we've been to before that had also changed significantly since 5 years ago) and then checked into the house we were renting near Luray.
Saturday we did the Strickler Knob hike. In the photos of the sky (view from the house we rented) where the mountain does a lil step up to the right of the sunset - I'm pretty sure that's the peak/overlook we hiked to. The hike was pretty miserable, but in that way where being miserable with someone you love is kinda funny instead of just shitty. The bugs were awful and we didn't think about bug spray, just sunscreen. And I chose the wrong shoes instead of my hiking boots and suffered. It got rocky, and most of the rocky section was like the picture I posted, but there were a few "climb up this 6ft boulder" moments where I felt like I was at the climbing gym but with real life consequences if I messed up. The peanut butter sandwich at the top was great though.
We got cleaned up after hiking and then checked out Luray Caverns. We have driven past the highway signs for it so many times over the years, so it was nice to finally see it. Was it worth the $34 apiece to get in? Eh, maybe. I'm glad we saw it. It was bigger than I expected - like a longer walk to get through the whole thing. And there's an organ inside that vibrates the stalactites to make music, and it played "A Mighty Fortress is our God" and I cried despite not being religious. I grew up in a church with really old/traditional hymns and a very solemn service, and that music still makes me so emotional even though whenever I read the Bible I am like "boy this is FUCKED up."
From the caverns we got dinner at a little diner spot, then ice cream and cocktails before heading back to the house. The distillery had a dog who enjoyed greeting all of the patrons. I enjoyed being greeted by a dog. But it wasn't climate controlled inside so the 90+ deg outdoors was more comfortable than inside.
Lastly, we stopped by Patty O's cafe on the way home. There's an inn with a very fancy Michelin starred restaurant in Washington, VA, and the chef there opened up this more casual cafe across the street. It's super cute and I really wanted to try it, but the vibe was better than the food. There was a live bluegrass band playing, and although I was bummed at first because it made it hard to hear each other talk, it was a nice atmosphere. The food was good but not mind-blowing. We also got some treats from the bakery to take home, and they were similarly good but not amazing. Except the chocolate mousse. That was mind-blowing, as much as a simple chocolate mousse could be.
Overall it was a really nice weekend getaway a few hours from home!

Navigating HVAC Replacement in Halifax: What Homeowners Should Know
When it comes to maintaining a comfortable living environment in Halifax, the importance of a reliable heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system cannot be understated. As seasons change, ensuring that your home's climate control is functioning efficiently is crucial. There may come a time when an HVAC replacement becomes necessary, and understanding what this entails can help homeowners make informed decisions.
 Recognizing the Signs for HVAC Replacement
The decision to replace an HVAC system isn't one to take lightly. Homeowners should be on the lookout for certain indicators that suggest their system may be nearing the end of its lifespan. Frequent repairs, inconsistent temperatures throughout the home, rising energy bills despite normal usage, and noticeable declines in indoor air quality are signs that might point towards the need for an HVAC replacement. It's important to consult with a professional if you're experiencing these issues as they can evaluate whether a new installation is the best course of action.
The Benefits of Upgrading Your HVAC System
Opting for an HVAC replacement can offer numerous advantages beyond merely avoiding breakdowns. Newer systems are designed with efficiency in mind, which can lead to significant savings on energy expenses over time. Additionally, advancements in technology mean modern units often come with improved features such as programmable thermostats and better air filtration systems, which contribute to enhanced comfort levels and healthier indoor air.
Choosing the Right HVAC System for Your Halifax Home
When considering an HVAC replacement in Halifax, selecting the right system is critical. Factors such as the size of your home, existing ductwork conditions, and local climate must all be considered to ensure optimal performance. A qualified HVAC contractor can perform a thorough assessment of your needs and recommend options that fit both your requirements and budget.
Professional Installation Matters
The installation process of an HVAC replacement is just as important as choosing the appropriate equipment. Proper installation affects not only the efficiency but also the longevity of your new system. Professional installers bring expertise in ensuring that every component works seamlessly together – from ductwork modifications (if needed) to thermostat calibration.
Preparing for Your HVAC Replacement Project
Preparing for an HVAC replacement involves several steps homeowners should consider beforehand. Clearing areas around vents and furnaces allows technicians easy access during installation day. Understanding any necessary permits or inspections required by local Halifax regulations will also ensure compliance with building codes.
Maintaining Your New HVAC System
After your new HVAC replacement has been installed successfully, maintaining it properly is essential to get the most out of your investment. Regular maintenance such as filter changes, seasonal inspections by professionals, and keeping outdoor units free from debris will keep your system running smoothly year-round.
In conclusion, recognizing when it's time for an HVAC replacement, understanding the benefits of upgrading, choosing suitable equipment tailored to your Halifax residence's specific needs, ensuring professional installation practices are followed closely – all play pivotal roles towards achieving efficient temperature control at home without unnecessary hiccups along the way. With careful planning and expert guidance from seasoned professionals within this field - homeowners will navigate through this complex process confidently while looking forward to many years of comfort ahead.

Joe invited Bria out, and she accepted. The other guys were debating who would approach her first because they all had feelings for her. Mike and Chester were married, so they watched the other guys compete to see who would approach her first. He laughed when they expressed their disappointment with him for asking her. Oh well. Was he going to put his video games aside for the evening? Yes, she was worth foregoing his video games for a few hours. What were they planning to do? He was not sure yet.
While texting with Kelly, she enquired about her manager. She provided her with the name and phone number of the company she worked for. They were highly recommended. She arranged a meeting with them. Henry joined her to ensure that his daughter would not be taken advantage of. They discussed her goals for her career.
She was willing to do whatever was offered to her. Modelling, acting, and singing. A Jack of all trades… or Jill. Henry sat back, listening. He did not say anything until he was asked for his opinion. That is when he asked for clarification on some points he was unsure about. The woman answered them truthfully. She wanted to get the best possible deal. How did she come to know about her? Bria mentioned her friend Kelly Clarkson, who had recommended them to her.
They set up a time to come in and sign the contract before the meeting ended. Henry was welcome to participate.
Since he had left the army, he planned to visit the local VA office to enquire about finding a civilian job in the medical field. He hoped that his skills and experience would be useful in his future career. A job would keep him occupied every day. It would also help him forget about the divorce. He woke up at 0430, or 4:30 a.m., and began his day. He went to bed at twenty one hundred hours, or nine p.m.
His uniform was neatly hung in his closet, and his boots sat on the floor. Everything he did was meticulously executed. He was disciplined not to allow anything to distract him. Did he force Bria to adopt the same lifestyle? No. It would be unfair to her. She was an independent individual.
When she was younger, she pretended to be a soldier just like him. He would demonstrate how to shoot finger guns, perform an army crawl, and salute. She enjoyed crawling around on the floor and pretending to shoot at various outdoor objects. She addressed a fellow soldier by their rank and last name. Everyone on the base thought it was adorable!
"OK, Sergeant Daddy!"
That is what she called him. She became less interested in military life as she grew older. She wanted to spend time with the other children her age on the base. They would visit the recreation centre or other facilities on base. He and Michelle allowed her to go off by herself because they knew she was safe. They gave her money to spend on whatever they chose to do.
The local area occasionally provided free activities for the children of active military personnel. It was a wonderful way to help them get through a difficult time. They did not choose to serve in the military. He chose this option because he could not afford to attend college. He wanted to go to medical school someday, but it was prohibitively expensive. The army allowed him to study while serving his country. He enlisted and was stationed at Fort Sam in Houston, Texas.
Following graduation, he relocated to his assigned base to begin his medical education. He was eighteen years old and had no clue what he was getting himself into. In retrospect, he acknowledged his naivety. He had no regrets about joining the military because it provided him with a unique learning experience. He met soldiers who were killed in combat. They gave their lives to protect their families back home.
He went to the local VA office with other veterans. It had posted details about the various services they offered. A worker questioned him about his service, abilities, and experience. He wanted to stay in the medical field because that is where he had been trained. The office would help him with his resume and interviewing skills. He felt less overwhelmed by everything after receiving assistance. At the end of their meeting, he expressed gratitude to the worker.
I am going out with Joe. I will let you know when I am close to home. – Bria
Bria and Joe met at a restaurant close to the studio. He was nervous, which Mike thought was cute! When he got home, he told Anna about the gossip. She was happy for him! He did not often go out with women. Mike laughed and expressed his excitement about telling them. Joe had a very dry sense of humour, and it was sometimes difficult to tell when he was joking. Anna was happy for him. He nodded.
How were things going for her? She was all right. The divorce was difficult for her. She wrote a very angry song that reminded him of Chester. It was full of rage and pain. She made a demo, which he saved on his laptop. He started playing the song after opening it.
I’m searching for something to hold onto
I’m searching for truth in the lies
The pain amongst the fake smiles
Don’t fucking tell me it will be alright
Anna agreed that the song sounded like something Chester would write. The lyrics reflected her emotions. She was extremely upset the night she stayed with them. Her mother betrayed her. It was as if she saw her mother in a new light. She mentioned her age: eighteen. Teenagers were known for their emotionality and dramatic tendencies. The smallest thing represented the end of the world. That was not to say she lacked the right to express her emotions. He got what she was saying.
They would help her manage her emotions in a positive manner. Her father would do the same. Joe and Bria had a good time together talking, gossiping about the boys, and laughing. He was the one who knew everything about everybody. He was always the first to find out about new developments. He was so quiet that everyone either forgot or did not notice he was there.
That left him exposed to a lot of gossip! Nothing remained secret for long because information spread quickly within the band. It was usually due to him. It was almost nine of the clock when they said their goodbyes. He texted Mike, informing him that the date had gone well.
It is been four hours now! Oh, my God! Is that what you intended by "a few hours?" What the hell did you do? - Mike
We went out to dinner somewhere nearby. I said I would give up my evening! – Joe
Damn! Congratulations on going out on a date! I am confident we will hear all about it tomorrow! – Mike
Haha. - Joe

A properly maintained HVAC system provides more consistent heating and cooling throughout your home. This means fewer hot or cold spots and a more comfortable living environment overall.
Reduced Risk of Breakdowns
Regular maintenance can help identify and address potential issues before they lead to system failures. This is especially important during extreme weather conditions when you rely on your HVAC system the most.
When to Schedule HVAC Tune-Ups
For optimal performance, it's recommended to schedule HVAC tune-ups twice a year: once in the spring for your air conditioning system and once in the fall for your heating system. However, if you notice any of the following signs, it may be time to schedule a tune-up sooner:
Unusual noises coming from your system
Inconsistent heating or cooling
Higher than usual energy bills
Poor indoor air quality
Frequent cycling on and off
Choosing the Right HVAC Service Provider
When searching for "HVAC Service Arlington VA, HVAC Repair Arlington VA," it's essential to choose a reputable company with experienced technicians. Look for providers that offer:
Comprehensive tune-up services
Transparent pricing
Positive customer reviews
Licensed and insured technicians
Emergency servicesWarranties on parts and labor
DIY Maintenance vs. Professional Tune-Ups
While there are some maintenance tasks you can perform yourself, such as regularly changing air filters and keeping the area around your outdoor unit clear of debris, professional tune-ups offer several advantages:
Expertise: Trained technicians have the knowledge and experience to identify and address potential issues that may not be apparent to homeowners. Specialized Tools: Professional HVAC technicians use specialized tools and equipment to perform thorough inspections and maintenance tasks. Safety: HVAC systems involve complex electrical components and potentially hazardous refrigerants. Professional technicians are trained to handle these safely. Warranty Protection: Many HVAC warranties require regular professional maintenance to remain valid.
The Cost of HVAC Tune-Ups vs. Repairs
While some homeowners may hesitate to invest in regular tune-ups, the cost of preventive maintenance is typically much lower than the cost of emergency repairs or premature system replacement. By catching and addressing issues early, you can avoid more expensive problems down the line.
Additionally, many HVAC service providers offer maintenance plans that can help spread out the cost of tune-ups over the year and often include priority service and discounts on repairs.
Conclusion
Don't wait until your HVAC system shows signs of trouble. Protect your investment with professional tune-up services from AVS Heating and Air Conditioning. Our experienced technicians are ready to help keep your system running smoothly and efficiently. Call us today at (703) 457-9028 to schedule your HVAC tune-up and experience the difference that professional maintenance can make.e.
