Thank the Lord for Coolness.

Our cooler in our new house doesnt work. It was quite old, and "Maguivered". Meaning: parts of it were held together with old socks, and the bottom had tar put all in it.
Long story short- our house has been 90 degrees for two weeks. The cooler guys couldn't come put a new one in for two weeks because of how busy they were in the season. So we slept downstairs a couple nights, we slept at my parents house a couple nights, and we bought someone's old used window cooler to see if that would help. We have wonderful friends, and our friend Bryan came over with his brother to help Aaron build this box for our window. Tacky? much. Especially since it's on the front of our house. But it did help for those very hot evenings. Thanks Bryan!


But finally!! The day has arrived and the cooler guys came! Here lies the remains of the dead....


They fixed us up with a brand spankin new one! and oh is it lovely...
Our house is a comfy 70 degrees, and it even uses a thermostat so it turns on when it thinks it should. (yes it "thinks".That is how smart it is.)
Needless to say, we are quite thankful for the cool air.
