Unseasonably HOT!


At 5:30 pm yesterday
afternoon it was 100*
with the heat index of 113*
Swealtering heat!



You know it's going to be a long

night when you hear a strange

squeal coming from your air

conditioning. It was so loud that

you could hear it from the front

yard. Sounded like a cat

with it's tail stuck in the door.

We called, John Ponsell at Universal Heating

and Air Conditioning to get on

their list for this morning.

We were in luck he was close

by on another service call

and came over with in 30

minutes. How's that for service?

Not sure what a service call on

a Father's Day Sunday nights

going to cost but guaranteed

it'll be worth it!

He said, "I hope it will get you through the night."

(it did :)

He will be back around lunch time today with a new motor. From Travis:That was UNIVERSAL HEATING and AIR. He is the best I've found.

I hope that this isn't an indication

of how the rest of the week

is going to go.

I am so THANKFUL FOR AIR CONDITIONING!

Wow, I can't imagine how hot! We are so cold here. AND WET. We haven't had this much rain in forever. It's been nonstop for about 3 weeks now, the rivers are flooding and I'm in desparate need of sun.
My daughter called from Houston and says it's 101, I laughed because I'm bundled up shivering.

Hope you stay cool....cooler than you already are.

113 is HOT! Hope your a/c gets fixed and it's smooth sailing from here. Rather cool here today. Sun is FINALLY shining! Doesn't seem like summer in this neck of the woods.

Did you try and fry and egg on the sidewalk?

Stay cool!

Glad you all have a heating - air conditioning place that is good. Still trying to find one here that will do the job right and not charge me twice what it is worth. Bunch of bandits.

We are suffering from the high temps too. Makes you wonder about July and August doesn't it? I'm thankful you did not have to suffer thru the night without a/c.

What did people do before air conditioning?? Add to that the fact that women used to wear all those layers of clothes and bustles and stuff. No wonder they got the vapors and swooned all the time!

Too bad about your candles. I had some melt like that once. It's just not pretty.

It seems so incredible that your summer can be that hot. Is it one of the Indian summer. You got to preserve those candles, and leave them as heirlooms to your grand.

Only this afternoon, I was teaching global warming.

This morning, my house was 5 degree C when I wke up, my car's windscreen was frosted over with ice, and it was 2 degrees.

Please send me some of your heat. LOL

I can tell you what we did before air conditioning. The same thing we did before TV. We sat on the porch and talked to the neighbors while the kids played hide and seek all up and down the block and caught fireflies. Open all the windows and let the breeze come through.
