Heat and such

Wow, it has been a long time... Life has been very full and busy as of late.

I am never one to say no to a little heat. In fact, I would much rather it be a hot summers day than a blizzard in the middle of winter. But that is for the outside... About a week and a half ago the most miserable thing happened. The AC in my home died!!! Why couldn't it have died a few weeks earlier, let's say the beginning of June, instead of now? The answer to that is, my family never seems to be that lucky. :) At first I didn't mind so much because I was at work all day, and then is was cool enough outside that I could sleep with the window open and still use a light blanket. However, as the days dragged on the temperature outside increased. That is why it is so miserable. I am constantly trying to find ways to cool down. Many would suggest swimming in order to cool off, but unfortunately, all water parks and pools are closed before I get off work. One of the joys of growing up and working.

There is a slight upside to the whole situation, after coming home from school, I have gained a few pounds. (It really isn't anything to worry about) Now that I live in a sauna, I have noticed that I must have some water weight. I am slowly losing pounds. That could be good and bad...

I wish it was only in my house that I have felt this extreme heat. Yesterday, I headed over to The Gym (odd name for a rec center) so that I could play a few games of four on four volleyball. When I got there, I found out that there wasn't any AC in The Gym. Holy hannah, was it HOT!! I was sweating right as I hit the doors. Then we all started to play and as you can imagine it just got hotter. But since we were playing volleyball, I wasn't too sad about being in such heat.

We have a new AC unit today and my dad is working on getting it all connected. I am very excited and I pray that it will be up and running soon!!!
