I hope you get your A/C fixed soon, She-it is really worth the money to run the thing, since most modern houses have not been designed for cross ventilation, aided by fans. Our present house certainly isn't, but I took great care to design our new one that way to save money and aggravation, plus it is cooler in the hills 25 miles from the city. The trade-out is that it is a lot colder in the winter, and the roads get too icy to drive on more often-oh, dear, I will have to work from home on the computer more often, damn... But I love winter-summer is not my favorite season.

Texan, the thing is: we don't HAVE air conditioning up here. A lot of businesses do, but most don't. And it rarely gets above 75 degrees up here in the summers, so it's not worth the investment.

We have ceiling fans in every room, which are a big help. But when it gets up to 90-96 degrees, its just too much.

It is supposed to cool off Monday, so I am praying to make it until then. heh!

We have AC in the SUV and the Van, but I just hate to waste the fuel to sit out there. Oh well, I shall survive. hehe!
