I’ve been trying to come up with different ways to be more active with other people.
I’ve started going to my local tennis courts and playing with a few strangers.
I’ve also started joining different social clubs and groups for other hobbies that I’m interested in. I’ve found that some of the most meaningful connections are with people I interact with on a day to day basis, like my air conditioning technician! I’ve been having issues with my air conditioning system for quite some time now. I’ve had to call the HVAC company several times to send someone out over the last two months, and they usually send the same technician since he understands the issue. Everytime the technician came by, we always had such great conversations. I told him that I am into saving the environment and he gave me some wonderful energy saving tips that would help preserve my air conditioning and heating system. He helped me set up a service plan so that my air ducts and vents are regularly cleaned out. Cleaning ducts is something that I never had done before, and I can only assume that that was the reason I’ve been having so many issues with the air conditioner. If you want to learn how to change your AC habits for the environment, I would definitely recommend speaking with your technician. There are so many great people out there that have such a wealth of knowledge. It’s been great to connect with people in the area and step out of my shell a bit.
