Randy has been bugging me for a month to turn on the AC. I am a heating and cooling nazi. I grew up with my father during the winter the heat was set at 68 and no more and during the summer we had no ac and when we did have it.......it was set at 72 for the first day to get the humidity out of the house and then set to 75 for the hottest part of the day and then up to about 77 the rest of the time if not turned off if the humidity levels were real low!
Yesterday when I blogged it was middle high humidty and a nice temp of in the 80s, again it is the same way by the end of the day though we were in the low to middle 90s with higher humidity and dew levels! Today is going to be worse. I closed up all the downstairs windows, pulled what blinds we have, covered the other windows with no blinds with blankets and towels, closed the door between the downstairs and upstairs (no duct work upstairs so windows stay open there) and turned the AC on to 72. Since the humidity isn't that bad yet in the house by this afternoon when we leave for taekowndo I can put it between 75-78 and leave it.
I love the heat but the humdity always ends up getting me! If I could walk around nakee and sweety I would but with kids I have to have clothes on.........so I am now turning the AC on! I am weak! Dayum the Summer! I don't care that technicaly it is the middle of Summer and the modern calander says Summer is just beginning I usually wait till the middle of July before I turn it on! I am so weak!
A few more loads of laundry and then I might take the kids down to my dads for a day of swimming before we go to taekowndo. Or a few more loads of laundry and then we move to my boy's room and get his room started! Either way I will be sweating like a fat woman walking because upstairs is going to be humid as hell till either we get our things from storage so I can get my window units or we go down to Berdina's house and get her old window unit since she just put Central air in her house!
I am Weak and you know what...........I don't care!
