Thankfully Waldorf has a few places that are like that because it certainly beats sitting at home on the sofa doing nothing

It’s Spring break y’all and my kids have been bugging me to take them to their favorite hangout spot in town. That spot is Scary Strokes, an indoor playground with miniature golf and arcade games. They love it because it has black lights throughout the facility and the games and prizes are better than the other places in town. I love it because it’s a place that has climate control, which means it’s great all year long. In the Summer, if it’s too hot outside or if it’s rainy and wet, I can take the kids here knowing that the facility will have comfortable air conditioning. It beats me sitting underneath a pavilion or on a bench at the park. And needless to say, when it’s cold outside, we completely avoid the outside playground and parks. In addition to Scary Strokes, my kids love going to the library when they can’t play outside. Of course, I don’t mind because the library also has climate control, which is perfect for me. The library has fun workshops for the kids, but it also has stuff for the grownups as well. To be honest, as long as a facility has climate control and is open all year long, I don’t mind taking my kids to them. Thankfully Waldorf has a few places that are like that because it certainly beats sitting at home on the sofa doing nothing. Although my house has great heating and cooling, I would rather be out doing something with the kids. So, this week, I am looking forward to going to Scary Strokes as well as to the library and I am sure my kids are as well.

Living in New York City got old.

I hated being in the city. It was riddled with homeless people, loud noises and crime. I really didn’t want to raise a family there. Also, the prices of everything were a lot. Unfortunately I worked in New York, so what was I supposed to do? I found a big house with a nice yard in Buffalo NY. It is only a few hours outside of New York City. It is perfect for my new family. I right now have one baby boy, but we plan to have more. I love that there is minimal traffic by my house so I would feel comfortable to let my son bike around the yard. I like that there are no car horns honking, people shouting or loud stereos. The cost of living in Buffalo is much better too. I can get more groceries than I did before. I have a better car and of course, my house is amazing. I don’t mind the hour commute to work. I make sure to get up early and beat traffic. During the winter the snow is pretty tough. I make sure to have a good car heating system. I then pre-heat the car so no snow or ice is on the windshield. I then can enjoy a toasty ride with a podcast going. The smartest move my family ever made was leaving New York City and going to Buffalo. It is safer, cleaner and a better way to live if you are a family unit.

Temperatures last month were uncommonly warm for the area.

It is currently only March and we normally have rain, light wind, and mild temperatures.

This year it has been close to 90 every single day of the month and we are only halfway through. I had to turn on the air conditioner inside of my home in order to help combat the warm temperatures. My mom lives about 30 minutes away from me and The Villages. I went to her house and I set up the air conditioner and the window in her bedroom. Her home has central air conditioning, but she has a special air conditioner with an air purifier that she uses during the summer months. There was something wrong with the air conditioner and I could not figure out how to get it working again. I decided to put the machine into the back of my car so I could take it to my house. I was hopeful that my husband would be able to look at the machine and determine the problem. He is very good at solving problems and a very skilled electrical engineer. He found a wire that had been chewed right through. It was hard to tell if the problem happened while the machine was running or if it happened while we had it in the attic during the off season. Either way, the chewed wire was easy to replace and that fixed the problem with the air conditioner. The next day I returned to The Villages so I could put the air conditioner back into the window at my mother’s place.

When you hear Buffalo most people consider wings and the Bills with it.

The Bills fans annoy me.

When the team does good everyone goes bananas. They suck okay? The team never does a good job. When they make the playoffs everyone goes crazy but they get locked out pretty soon. They just aren’t very good. The fans are something all together. During football season it isn’t out of the norm to see everyone in Bills attire. I recently flew to Buffalo NY during the season and around 90% of the people on the plane were red and blue. What was doubly annoying is that some jerk was yelling out the score to the local game. Anytime I thought I was going to sleep some guy would yell first down or something or other. I obviously don’t follow football or even really care about it. I haven’t even gone to a game either. I don’t know what first down means either. I don’t get why you have a defensive and offensive line. It is a stupid game that I feel a vast majority of players can be eliminated. But that is what Buffalo has. You get a whole bunch of wings, beer and pizza. You then get hopped up and attend a Bills game. The tailgate is apparently worth mentioning too. People grill hot dogs on their cars, wera full on face pain in the snow and get totally annihilated. That is just not my idea of a good time. I wish it wasn’t always football as the main sport we talk about.

I asked one of the servers if the air conditioner was broken.

My friends and I love to cheer for the home team. We are lucky to live in a city that has a professional football team. My friends and I live in Jacksonville, Florida and it is home of the jaguars. We bleed black and teal colors down here. Every season when we have a home opener, my friends and I get together for a huge party. This year we had a party down by the beach. Things got a little out of hand and one of my friends’ neighbors called the police. We had to shut our party down early because of the noise. I’m really excited for the Jacksonville football team. Looks like they have a pretty good team this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if they make the playoffs. I was worried about the game on sunday. My friends and I went to a Jacksonville bar to watch the game. There were a lot of people in the bar. It was hot, humid, and crowded. It didn’t feel like the bar was running the air conditioning at all. I asked one of the servers if the air conditioner was broken. She told me there were a lot of people inside of the bar and there was nothing that she could do about the indoor temperatures. My friends and I were enjoying the game, but I was pretty uncomfortable and I was starting to sweat. The place didn’t have any AC and I wanted to get out of there. I told the guys that I was going back to my apartment to watch the rest of the game.
