DYK Thread for August

**For those uncertain to what a DYK thread is......**

DYK stands for Did You Know or Do You Know

It is simply a chit chat thread where every thought is written in sentences and each sentences starts with the initials DYK---it is fun, entertaining and a great way to meet the board members

Our AC went out last night.

I was at bunco and dh called me. He asked if we were almost done and I said no, we were only halfway through. He said fine and hung up, so I knew he was mad that I didn't offer to come home.

But really, what was I going to do?

So I called back a little later and asked if I needed to come home. he said yes, we might have to get a hotel room, etc.

So I came home. I called the home warranty company to get someone out here, only for them to say it would be Monday.

WTH? I'm in TX, it's 105 degrees everyday!

So I called this morning and talked to someone, and they put it in as an emergency since I have kids, and if I don't hear from a company in 2 hours I have to call back.

I hope you get your ac fixed today.I am guessing ac in Texas in the summer is like heat in Pa in the winter you can't do without.Here not having ac can be uncomfortable,but most days it is tolerable.However,we rarely go above 85.Unless,it is time to goback to school then you can be sure temps are in the 90's.Can you get a hotel tonight if they do not fix your ac.Hopefully it is something they can fix quickly.

If they can't fix it today for some reason, we'll head to mil's tonight and then leave the girls there tomorrow so dh and I can come back to work, since we both have to work tomorrow afternoon.

It is going to get really hot in here soon. I'm thinking the girls will get in the pool after lunch to cool off some.

Dh is on his way home, so I need to get in the shower in a few minutes so I can head to work when he gets here.

You're right, no ac in Texas is like no heat in PA in the winter!

Our house is actually quite cool on the bottom floor.It is only 74 in here and it is 86 outside.I still feel bad for the poor cat,since he has a fur coa and he is 15 years old.We do have ceiling fans and an attic fab that helps keep out house cool.It is also brick and very well insulated.However if it did not cost between $15-$20 thousand to switch our heating system we would get central air.We have radiator heat,which makes the house toast warm in the winter you just can't have central air with it.Good Luck getting the ac fixed.Our furnace went out on a Sunday once and although they did come out to look at it we had to wait until Monday for he part to come in.
