Air Conditioning is overrated

What a week. Yesterday, the air conditioning upstairs went out. It is hot up here so we decided to move downstairs. Why is it that the compressor always goes out at the end of the week that so that you get that extra few days of the heat? Anyway, we are down until sometime next week. With any luck, it will be Monday night. Outside of that, we hope to have air conditioning when Kellie's parents show up on Friday (is it really Friday?).

We survived Ryan's birthday. One of his best friend's was sick and could not make it although the girl from down the street (we shan't call her his girlfriend and God forbid that they actually acknowledge each other at school) showed up to join in the festivities. She was a little shocked to find kids here that were in her class last year but it all went okay.

One thing that I did recently realize is that now that we are camping out downstairs, we are living in about 1,400 sq. ft., essentially the size of our first house.

One last thing is that the home warranty will probably not cover the disposal of the compressor, so we will have to pay $215 to dispose of it. Kellie wants to know why we can't just throw it away. In addition, how does that work? We will pay for the part (we will actually find that out next week) but we won't pay for disposal. What a racket. Tracy
