I want aCoolerHouse!



My home in Murphy is great.

It's in a great Murphy neighborhood, the elementary school is exemplary, the yard, the house, the trees, the flowers, and shrubs. It seems silly to say, "I love this house!" but I do. I do not, however, love my electric bill. This house is only 7 years old! It's Energy Star certified, etc., etc. We're not hanging meat in the living room, the Thermostat is on a mere 79 degrees. WHY IS IT SO HOT??? WHY AM I PAYING $400 TO THE UTILITY COMPANY???

Enter in my latest favorite home improvement service provider: ACoolerHouse.com

I really liked my initial meeting with Mike Ross from A Cooler House and I am eager to get the work started on our radiant barrier, new green ventilation options, and the sealing of our HVAC duct work. I'll be detailing our experience here on the blog... so stay tuned, stay green, and stay cooler!

Ever been to Murphy?

I love living in Murphy, Texas.

You have to appreciate the complexities of living in a large metropolitan are like Gotham--I mean Dallas / Fort Worth. I have friends who spend one, two, even three (3) hours a day in their cars driving to and from work, taking kids to activities--they burn more rubber on the road than the Department of Public Safety! I love Metropolis--I mean, Dallas--but I'd rather be in the pool, my study, my office, the yard, the organic garden, or the floor with my boys than commuting all over town.

That's why I love Murphy, Texas.

We're so central; 15 minutes to Collin Creek Mall::15 minutes to Keller Williams Plano Central Office::15 minutes to Firewheel Mall::5 minutes to church::10 minutes to Nana's house::60 seconds to my covered back porch to watch the boys chase the bunnies in our yard.

Yup. So what are you waiting for? Move to Murphy.
