I returned from Virginia Beach just in time for our A/C to die. On the eve before my return, we had a bad electrical storm in DC. It knocked out our compressor so we have to replace it. We got the diagnosis on Friday and estimates on Saturday. Unfortunately, they can't install our new system until Thursday!!! Oy, a whole week without A/C during one of the hottest months of the year. Just my luck. It's ironic because I was gone all last week and we'll be at Lake Anna next week. It hasn't been horrible until today. It was hot and humid today and our thermostat read 87 degrees at one point. We have about 12 fans going all over the house (we borrowed a bunch from our generous neighbors) but they just move hot air. Dave is currently sitting at the kitchen table doing work and he just asked me if he could go back to his office! AJ and I are going to sleep in the basement tonight. Charlotte seems to be doing fine with sleeping. Hopefully this will all be over soon.
AJ asleep this afternoon. Yes, I know I'm breaking all sorts of rules by letting him sleep on the couch and his belly, but I was with him the entire time and it's just too hot in his room.
Charlotte napped for THREE hours in the basement with two fans blowing on her. She almost always sleeps with a baby under her arm and a purse over her shoulder. Glasses and shorts are optional! She's going to kill me one day for posting this picture. Don't you wish you had undies that cute?
Clearly, the heat isn't bothering AJ too much. He's such a happy baby all the time.
I'm off to take a cold shower and go to bed. How did anyone ever live without A/C back in the day? It's definitely a luxury I need.
