I finally broke down and bought a second air conditioner for my house.
I had been wanting one for about four years, but I was too cheap to buy one.
This summer has been quite a bit warmer than previous summers, so I was sick of being super warm in my house. We have had one air conditioner in our house ever since we moved in about ten years ago. We usually keep that one air conditioner in the living room. I have moved it into my husband’s and my bedroom the night before. It is really hard to sleep when you are sweating to death. I knew that if I ever got a second air conditioner, I would put it in the kitchen. The kitchen is on the opposite side of the house from the living room. As soon as I broke down and bought a second air conditioner, I installed it in the kitchen window. I cannot describe how wonderful it is to have a cool kitchen. I have never had an air conditioned kitchen before, so I had no idea how nice it would be. I actually find myself enjoying cooking now. I used to dread cooking dinner especially during the summer months because it was so hot in the kitchen that by the time I was done cooking, I looked like I had just run a marathon out in the heat. It was ridiculous. We ordered food a lot because I just could not cook in such a hot kitchen. I am so thankful for a second air conditioner.
