It's Actually Cold?

After months and months of heat you would think some cooler temperatures would be welcome. Normally they would, but you see here in the desert we have precious little autumn. Or spring, for that matter. It seems we go from months of 100 plus temps to a week or so of the 90's and then seem to skip the 80's and 70's completely. It's hard to adjust to that when you're used to roasting. We are barely making it to 70 the last few days. Now let me say that 70 here is about everyone elses 60 because we have next to no humidity. Why is this a bad thing? Because it gets down into the mid 40's during the night and to top it all off...our upstairs heater isn't working. We turned it on yesterday and nothing happened. Typical.

Every change of season either our air conditioning or our heater goes on the fritz. We should've expected it because that's just the way it goes. Remember back at the beginning of summer when we had no upstairs A/C for a couple weeks? Hopefully we can get someone here pronto to fix this or I'll just have to wait until our temps are back up to normal, which is somewhere in the 70's, with overnight lows somewhere in the 50's. That will be more like it. I want the cooler weather but it gets pretty chilly at night and that makes it too hard to get out of bed in the morning! Not to mention getting out of the shower!!!
