I am so happy today that it was warm enough to open up the windows and air out the house. It had been a rather cold winter, so there were no chances to open the windows. Hopefully there are many more days where the windows could be opened. The house seemed a bit musty but the fresh air is now improving things in the house. The fresh air in the house is quite the liberating experience.

I do agree. There are some big psychological changes to say the very least. Therefore, your mind is going to be drastically changed to say the least. The fresh air does open your mind on new perspectives on life for sure. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Hi, megamatt. It was pretty warm here this week too. And last week. I have my ceiling fan running right now in my living room. I am also sitting in front of my stand up fan too. It feels so good too. I love opening up my windows in my home just as long as no bugs can fly in. I had to open up my windows about last month. I was mopping and the bleach fume was just too unbearable to smell. It made our eyes burn. I don't like mopping with bleach. It can be hazardous to ones health!

Yeah mopping with bleach...not a big fan of that one. Either when I have to do it or when I'm in a closed off house. Hopefully the weather remains great for the foreseeable future for you. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Oh I am so jealous with you that it is getting warm there and you can open the windows... It is so very cold here that we cannot even go out for a walk yet. I can't wait to get out and play! We don't have air-conditioner, we like to open windows instead in the summer to feel the nice breezes.

Yeah a nice breeze is good. Even with the air conditioner, when it is not too hot, I still open the windows. Fresh air is good for people and for everything. Plus it does make the house rather more pleasant. Sadly the temps have gone down around here but hopefully they'll be back up before long, so the windows can be open again. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

seeing out the cold winter,seeing the bright and beautiful spring in,all of us feel relaxed and carefree.We needn't wrap ourself in thick clothes and go out for a walk, enjoy spring scenery.The circulation of air makes us have a breath of fresh air moreover can prevent bacteria from breeding.

It is a wonderful feeling to say the very least. To see the spring weather and the air going through the house. To eliminate the vast majority of the germs that pollute the air. It is rather wonderful. Hopefully after the brief tease there will be more spring weather. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

At last one ... just me and my thoughts .. Generally, I hate loneliness, but today I felt a strong desire to be alone.I do not understand why I sometimes just want to hear my thoughts, nothing else.
I needed to hear nothing, you see nothing, feel nothing ... I think of myself ...just me ... probably selfish moments when someone else does not want to be part of our thoughts ...
Open the window ... winter cold air slams my cheeks, I felt like my soul is awakening ... I felt as light enters the lamp in front of my house behind my eyes ... I felt like all my tears are fading... I felt that I felt I live ... to live for ...Open wide eyes ... pull cold air in the chest ... and let the last tears to flow down her cheeks ... I could feel them glide smoothly, hot, but I knew I would be the last ... stayed there a while to convince me not dream, to be sure it was me, that I found.
I think that's what you mean!

That is a good rule of thumb. Of course there are days where it is rather cold outside and unbearable. Still there are times where they need to be opened. It helps with the comfort and the health, along with everything else. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

I will fully agree with you here. Here we have had one of the coldest winters ever. I made sure that all windows and doors and vents were shut, it was awful, i even had two duvets on my bed, things got that bad. I am so glad that it is now getting that little bit warmer. It is still a little cold so i have just decided that at the moment i will open the vents on my windows to let some air in, when it starts to then get a lot warmer i will start to open my windows again fully which will bring a nice breeze and freshness of air to my home.

It is really a great feeling when you think about it. I was only able to have the windows open for a few hours for a few days but that helped a little bit. Hopefully in a few weeks, there will be a more permanent arrangement for the windows being opened. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.
