In fact, today's going to be that kind of day. Although we're still pretty cool (about 69) and it's cloudy and foggy out, we're supposed to get to 85 with lots and lots of humidity. And the stickiness is something I just can't deal with. Right now, the windows are open so the cats can watch the birds and squirrels but once it starts to heat up and the humidity makes it unbearable, the clothes are comin' off.

In reply to: Sandy 's message, "Boy, you *have* had the week from hell, haven't you? I hear you on the sinus infections. The last one I had lasted 5 weeks (along with the headache) because at the time, we didn't have really good health insurance and I wasn't going to go see the doctor and run up a huge bill. These days, though, with double coverage, I'd be ringing the doc's doorbell, insisting on some antibiotics. And poor Harley. I wonder what he got into that gave him such a bad case of the trots? And poor Goose too. You've really had your hands full. Then to add your IBS to the heap and wow! It's no wonder you're overwhelmed. And the a/c is out again?? I'd be hiding in a tub full of cold water and not moving. We haven't gotten near that hot yet this year (that usually comes in August) but already, on the hot days, I strip clothes off after pulling the drapes and turning the ceiling fans on high. Nobody can see me and I stay fairly comfortable." on 8:05:37 am, Mon, 07/02/07

Thanks guys...... still no coil to be found. Hopefully tomorrow, cuz with Wed. being a Holiday, that would push us to Thursday or Friday! Don't know if I can handle the heat for that long! They did recharge the system, so I get a little cool air. It's keeping the house at around 86-90 degrees..... which is a HELL of a lot better than 116! According to my little weather station, the humidity is hovering around 46% too.... so it's sticky and bleck. The Weather Channel says our humidity is only 11%, but they are full of kwap. Danny said the swamp coolers at his work weren't working today cuz it was so humid.... I think they test the levels way out in the middle of nowhere, and not in town where people actually live!

I know this is no help because you're just plain miserable, but our humidity today was running at between 96% this morning and 80% this afternoon. When it was cloudy this morning, it wasn't too bad but the sun came out at about 12:30 and it heated up fast. That's when the a/c came back on. But at 86-90 degrees, I'd be downright pissy and miserable. Good god, Vicki, I hope they can find a new coil for you tomorrow. It's *insane* to try and live in your weather conditions with a non-working air conditioner. (NT) -- Sandy, 7:41:06 pm, Mon, 07/02/07
