Technology has a great way of making once challenging tasks a bit simpler.
- My husband is great at finding ways to simplify our lives in the midst of our busy schedules.
He has found many ways to add upgrades to our home that does not break our budget and adds time to our schedules. I am usually a bit further behind on technology upgrades, and I do not always see the benefit in these upgrades. One of the most recent upgrades that my husband suggested was that of a smart thermostat. At first, I thought this would be an unnecessary cost. How often did we really adjust our thermostat throughout the day? I was content with the old-fashioned manual thermostat we had, and I did not immediately see a need to upgrade. My normal routine was adjusting the thermostat a few degrees before going to bed each night, and then immediately adjusting it in the morning after waking. As the weather got a bit cooler, I found it harder to push myself to leave my warm bed in the morning and run down the cold stairs to the thermostat to adjust it before making my morning coffee. It was then that I realized a smart thermostat might be a good idea. This smart thermostat was a great addition to our home. The smart thermostat came with an app that you could download to your phone, which meant that you could adjust the thermostat from any location. This was a great tool for us, as our work schedules fluctuated. I am so glad my husband suggested the smart thermostat for our home.
