Our new Air Conditioner!!

The cold wind's a blowin' hehe

Well if you have ever been in our house in the summer you know its pretty unbareable from about 3pm till a few hours after the sun goes down.. Our dumb airconditioner does not keep up with the heat... maybe its that the insulation is non-existent...maybe its that you can feel the breeze through the windows when they are shut.. maybe its cause we have a retarded door.. or maybe because we only have one airduct going to the largest room in the house... whatever the case may be.. we had a pow-wow/pep rally and talked ourselves into buying a window unit. And Praise be to God. We can actually enjoy our evenings now...Dare we say we might even get chilly at times? I know its hard to believe.

We also picked up a saw for Mat....

Home Depot and Lowes are like Hobby Lobby.. Dont go in without a list.. because you'll come out with 10x more stuff than you need...like almost $60 of wood and screws to only use about $20 worth :)

Ha ha!! At first glance I thought Matt was standing at a drive through window!!! I was like, are they at Chick-fillet or something?! Funny!

What a handy man!!! What fun! Sorry you're hot!!! :(

LOL! That pic of Matt is uber cool. :D He can be the coolest air-blower ever. Hehehe. Well, I'm glad you're now getting comfortable with your new air-con.

I can’t imagine the summer without an AC! Anyway, you made the right decision to buy a new AC rather than to repair your old AC unit. Though buying a new one is a bit costly, modern ACs now are energy efficient which will help you save on your electricity bill.

Mechteld is right. You really have to determine which of the two will cost you less: repair or replace. Sometimes, repairs can cost you a lot more in the long run if you need it frequently. Asking for the professional’s advice will also help in deciding which is better.

Howdy, Mechteld. I can't imagine my summer without air conditioning as well! It's kind of hard to sleep during the night, and it's hard to repel heat during afternoons. And that's when ACs are very handy and useful. They give me a good night sleep and make me comfortable during my 1pm - 6pm working hours at home.
