She Turned It On!!!!

I figured after all my bitchin' and moanin' I ought to at least tell y'all about what I discovered yesterday. And yes, it was a good thing.

To explain, when I moved out of The Little Blue Cracker House my landlady offered me the attic walk-up over her house. It's what I call self contained. Flat rent - no utilities. Just exactly what I need to get back on my financial feet after bein' outta work for 4 months.

Being an attic walk-up most of the walls are only about 4' high. Meaning that most of the windows are around knee height. And they are small. Not much cross breeze. So - when it's 70 degrees outside - it's about 90 up here.

So - I've been a real wuss and have been complaining about how flippin' hot it is. Last night I was layin' on the bed watching a movie and dozing.

Then it happened. I felt a cold breeze. It woke me up. To be honest it kinda scared me because I couldn't figure out what it was.

I followed the trail and realized.......she has central air. And she finally turned it on. Thank Goodness.

I rushed around, shutting all the windows and just stood there in front of the register. I was so flippin' happy.....over something so very simple.

Now, it's still not as cool as I like to keep it, but it's better. Much better.

This morning I took my coffee out on the deck and just watched the morning begin. I look down and there was my landlady. I thanked her. She laughed at me. (She thinks I'm very sweet. Ha!) Hopefully she got the hint.

Leave the flippin' air on until September! Don't make me come down there!!!
