REPAIR-O-RAMA!!!

First off.  Anyone coming in today and sees a zombie slightly resembling me, but with enormous bags under his eyes, fear not!  I (like Angie and everyone else in the house) are a tad tired!  See, like so many home in Florida the AC system works best during the winter. 
When it's not on.
It's when the first warm days of the year hit that it shows it's true faults!  Such was the case yesterday.  Mid afternoon Angi called to let me know that the AC was struggling.  A quick e-mail to my landlord and she has tech's coming tomorrow.  As well they SHOULD as it ws only about four months ago that we had them out to do extensive repairs on the bloody thing!  Then bout a week later it was shut down for the winter.  We only used the heat for like three days in a very mild winter.  Well anyway, as the techs won't be here until today we had to grin and bear it with cool shower and fans.  Finally around 1.30 am we headed to bed, tossing and turning until 2.30 when, almost asleep were woken by Kaleb with an urgent exclamation that the roof in there room was flooding.  The air handler is in their ceiling (the boys room is in the renovated garage) and yes, it ws Niagara Falls.  Mops and towels, bucket brigade and dad standing in the attic space bailing it out, and we had it temporarily under control.
Although I STILL have insulation embedded in my back!!
Another shower later and we were asleep...by 4.30am.
So yes, I am a little less then top notch today!
ANYWAY!
Yesterday was  RECORD SETTER!! Took in and put out a total of 17...yes SEVENTEEN repairs!!!  Granted amongst them were three tube repairs, but hey..they count!  Thank you all so very, very much for your trust!  And thanks to Dave for three of them on referral!  (one of them saying that Dave told him "NOT to go anywhere else!"  WOW!  No THAT'S loyalty!  Needless to say didn't get anything new built but after I finish the last two I'll be hitting on a real sweet KHS to start then (energy reserves, and caffeine infusions providing) will be going onto a couple more Schwinn's!
So with that, I bid you all a fond G'day!  And we'll see you soon!
