It is very hot for us right now. Not like it is in the south, but hot enough. I ache more in the super cold and the heat so right now, I am aching a lot more than usual. It happens every year. I feel it more this year because our a/c has died and needs to be replaced and like so many I know, we just don't have the money to replace it. Or rather, if I replace it and the furnace goes, we are in deep trouble so the best choice was to wait and see what happens with the furnace. So far, until yesterday, it actually hadn't been so bad. Low 80s, high 70s, not much humidity, it was really nice. Then yesterday, yup, summer is here! We are heading for lower temps again this week, so that will be good. I have several tops that are very light and I have a trusty good fan so does most everyone in the house so we are all set. My fan has been brought down to the kitchen right now so it is blowing on those of us sitting at the dining room table. It works. It was quite comfy, temp wise, although very achy, with the fan blowing in my room last night. I hope it is again tonight. We have an attic fan too that helps pull the hot air out upstairs. I am afraid I have gotten quite spoiled with this a/c we have had for the last 20 years. We didn't have a/c in the house growing up. It was put in in 1995. I was a grateful girl then. It was right before I started really getting sick.
Summer has been okay so far. I have a few students who have stopped for the summer, which is always sad as I miss them. Most of them stay. I don't have a lot of students as I am just not healthy enough to teach that many. I do have 2 new ones starting tomorrow so that is good. It helps balance out the ones that quit. I have the books we need already. Acer and I picked them up on Thursday. I like taking him with me because he is good company and he likes going to music stores.
I hope summer is good for you so far.
so far our spring and summer have been scorching and it does not bode well for this body either. we are fortunate to have a/c but it runs non-stop and that worries me at it being almost 20years old too. so we keep it at a toasty 74 degrees and make due with a ceiling fan. I'm sure we will survive, not like our yard and any flowers we may have had. really crazy weather for us. nice to see you check in, I think about you often but hardly post anymore...guess I've lost my muse. stay cool.
