Not much planned for today. It is very warm this morning and pretty humid but things are supposed to change.
I decided to take the air conditioner out and clean it to see if it would work any better. I was quite surprised that it wasn’t hard to get out or move outside. I did it myself! Not bad for an old man. It was really dirty. Lots of dust caked on the fan blades and the fins. I wet it down with water and put on some scrubbing bubbles and some other cleaner and hosed it off. It looks a lot better! I will have to wait for it to dry out to see if it works OK.
I let it sit out for about an hour drying off then brought it back in. That wasn’t real bad either. I plugged it in and started the fan and it works, then turned on the air and it works. It is almost 80 out now and the air it is blowing is 66 or 68 so I think it will work. I decided to close up the house and see how good it does work. We ran it for about 45 minutes and it was comfortable in here and after about an hour, or a little more, the compressor shut off and it was actually comfortable in here so I guess it is going to work.
I texted Brandon and Tara yesterday to see if they would email me a picture. They said they would so when I get it I will post it on the blog.
About 2PM the wind started blowing and Linda said I could turn off the air because the cold front has made it. It is pretty cool out for sure. We left the house open to keep it cool and by 5PM I had to close it because it was getting chilly. Linda had to put on a sweater and it was still 73 degrees in the house:-)….
I don’t think we will need the heat until morning.
Going to see if I can find another picture…
This was this summer at home but that is a hummingbird. For me taking the picture I thought it turned out pretty good!!!
Time to say Night Y’all..
