Struggling To Find Ourselves

Yep, it’s DEFINITELY warm around here, weather-wise. Yesterday, our high was slightly over 100 degrees….with about 5052% humidity. I think Summer has FINALLY arrived!! GOOD thing it’s August, though!!! We’re due to start cooling off before long!!! I’m not sure I could have stood the normal 6 weeks of 100+ degree weather that we normally get. Of course, being in this new house helps with the heat DRASTICALLY…but still, with it being that hot, it tends to grate on the nerves if it’s very extended.

This house is GREAT!!! It was about 102 outside the day before yesterday, and it was 86 in my house, WITHOUT the air conditioning!! I believe the “experts” say your house is only supposed to be like 15 degrees cooler than the outside temperature, because any cooler than that, and it’s too much shock to your body. It’s kind of neat having a house that stays cooler INSIDE than it is outside!!! In our last house, by noon or so on days like yesterday, it was normally hotter inside than it was outside. NOT so in this house!!! Thank God for this house!!! It’s SOOOOOOO much nicer!!! Miss having my windows open, but I can deal with it for a day or two while we have this heat. We’ve got the air conditioner on, but mainly just to cut SOME of the humidity, as that is what really makes the heat unbearable. And yes, our air conditioners work GOOD!!! How cool is that? A house that stays cool, AND air conditioners that work TOO well some days!!!

Thanks for the notes!!!…*hugs* to those that normally get them
