It's Hot!

Our air conditioner has not been working well all summer. We could only cool the house down to about 78 degrees. Then last Thursday, the unspeakable happened... the a/c stopped working all together. Do you have any idea of what it's like in Texas in August with no a/c? I can't write the word to describe it. On thing is for sure if I were in prison this would be considered cruel and unusual punishment! It's at least 88 degrees in the house during the day and at night when the temperature outside gets down into the low 70s, it gets all the way down to 87 degrees in the house... yippee!

I haven't slept in 6 nights. I'm so exhausted and hot and crabby! The a/c repairmen showed up at the house at 9:30 this morning. It's now 1:32pm. He tells me he's "just about there", but it's hot, REALLY hot in here. It's already up to 89 degrees. If he doesn't finish soon, I may become violent. This better work, we better have a/c tonight, or I cannot be held responsible for my actions. It's not my fault, it's temporary insanity, the heat melted my brain! It can't take it anymore!!!


It's 4:45... wait, what's that I feel? Oh my gosh, it's cold air coming out of the vents! I'm so happy. Let me check the thermostat, hold on a sec....... wow it's 87 degrees in here, the temperature has already gone down one degree. Yippee! I'm gonna get some sleep tonight!!!
