April 9, 1996: My landlady and landlord saved money by keeping the furnace turned off

Thirty years ago today

            On Monday I probably worked someplace but I don’t know where. It was still cold outside sometimes but my landlords Helga and Peter had made a decision to not have the furnace on most of the time to save money. They’d been doing this all winter and into the spring. I had a space heater going all the time in my apartment.
