Air Conditioner Issues

If you read my 100th post you would know that one of the things I really love, I mean really love, is air conditioning. I am so thankful to live in the time in which I do. You know, a time when cars have air, most homes have air, restaurants, schools, most buildings have air conditioning. I think I took air conditioning for granted until June 14, 1998. That is when my love/hate relationship with air conditioners began. Dave and I got married on June 13, 1998 and the next morning we were leaving for our honeymoon. We got into the car headed out and realized the air was not working. So you can imagine how HOT it was riding in that car in the middle of June. But we managed and it was a great trip and it gives us a good story to tell. We got back home to our little rental house in Gordo and our air conditioner did not work more than it did. This was a character building experience for me and Dave. Once when the twins(my sisters) came to visit, they were so hot that we went to the grocery store just to cool off. Oh the memories:) So then we moved to the east side of the state. Our central air unit went out and we had to replace it....which was a big chunk of cash!! Now 10 years, almost 11 years later we are still having air issues!!! Every year it seems we need to have our unit repaired. A few years ago we had the repairman out to fix our unit and he found a snake wrapped around the inside of the outside unit. Thankfully it was dead. So here we are again. The beginning of another summer and our air is out. What do you think God is trying to teach me? I guess I haven't gotten it yet. So tomorrow we will have an air repairman come and work on this old unit again. Thankfully today was in the 60's.

I understand your love of cool air! I don't like being cold, but I dislike even more being hot! Hope the weather stays cool long enough for your repairs to take place!
