Ugh!!!

Our downstairs A/C went out. Manus told us what part to order but he went to girl's camp so we have to wait until he gets back on Thursday to come help Blaine put in the new motor. I was painting today and it was about 95 in my house, my mom got faint so I had her go upstairs and sit on my couch, at least my upstairs room has A/C. It was going to be a little crowded with my mom sleeping on my couch in my room so Blaine went to Home Depot and got a portable A/C unit that rolls and we put it in her room, it cools up to 400 square feet and once the A/C is fixed we will put it in the living room/dining room and that will help cool the front of the house, it blows really cold air... Back to our fiasco, Blaine did attempt to install it himslef (not a good idea if you know him, murphies law, lol) but the motor was the wrong size so he took it back and they didn't have the right size (do they ever?) so they gave him an attachment called a bushing with a keeper to make it work, well once on the roof he lost the keeper, it flipped out of his hands and hit the roof and then flipped into the neghbors yard, (of course). I went over to her JUNGLE and searched and searched but could not find it. He had and idea but he could not find his drill bits, he finally gave up and decided to wait for the expert to come back to town. Oh and while he was trying to fix it, I decide to put my feet in the pool and cool off the dogs, first I sat Rusty on the pool step and put water on his head and back and he loved it, next I did the same with Katrina, then I grabbed Sammie and started to put water on her back and he leaped out and started swimming across the pool, I figured she would just climb up the steps as she was headed right to the steps but then she turned and tried to get up in the corner, I kept calling her to the steps but she wouldn't go that direction, she tried again to get up in the corner and then slipped and went completely under so I dove in with all my clothes on and rescued her. What a day! Good thing Jazmine went to camp or she would be sleeping on our couch.
