My house is freezing and it hampers my desire to get out of bed.
Lack of insulation in this country is disgusting. Climate change is only going to get worse, and I'm fully expecting that people will die in their homes when it's too hot and too cold.
My buildings OC installed insulated windows in all the apartments, which has caused more condensation because they are airtight, and now it's the occupants responsibility to make sure mold doesn't occur ๐๐๐. But there no insulation in the roof as far as I can tell, so we lose heat through the roof. Either we have the split system on, which is old and inefficient, and lose heat. Or we leave it off and stay cold AS FUCK all day and night. The only saving grace is having oodies.
Hate the way we build in this stupid cuntry
I seem to be living in my oodie this winter. Nice clean clothes everyday then oodie goes on top, which I try to keep clean. Looking at it carefully it's starting to wear out. ๐ซฅ
