    A/C is broken...and guess where I live...

    SOUTH CAROLINA!!!!

    **Update on page 2**

    (well, kind of...right on the border of NC and SC...)

    Anyway, the temp today with heat index reach the high of the summer at 110 degrees! And today our a/c decided to break! The dogs are sooo hot - as well as the humans! And no repair person until tomorrow!!

    Right now we are a steamy 90 degrees inside according to the thermostat!

    Fingers crossed that something is fixed...and QUICK!!!

    YIKES! I'm so sorry.

    It's REALLY hot over here, too.. about 104*. But, that's an L.A. summer for ya. They've put up warnings around here about not leaving the A/C down too low, because there have been many power outages which equals no working air conditioning.

    Hope you guys can get it fixed quickly!

    You definately have my sympathy! I hope you can get it fixed soon. My brother and I about burned up driving the old pickup to the dealership. I didn't realise it got that hot up there. Good luck on getting cool really soon!

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear this. Can you and the dogs stay with a friend or family member tonight to stay cool? Hope they fix the a/c asap.

    I'm sorry to hear about your a/c. I know how horrible that can be. ABout 2 months ago Alexa's a/c broke thankfully her house is very well insulated so it didn't get too hot. However I would be doomed if mine broke. I once forgot to turn it on and it got up to 102 in my apartment!

    If you have any 1 gallon water jugs lying around fill them with water and freeze it, put them in the areas where the dogs like to hang out. It will help cool down the area a little bit.

    Oh gosh! I would just peal over and die. I bet you'll be spending a lot of time in your vehicle. Hopefully you have some fans to atleast move around the air some.


    Fingers crossed it gets repaired soon, hopefully it doesn't take too long.

    A/C's always decide to break at the worst times, huh? I'm so sorry to hear your AC broke when its so hot. Is it central? What happened? Did it just stop working? Our's has done that before, but my dad discovered there's something outside in the backyard that 'resets' the air conditioning unit. Resetting it fixes it up. It just gets over-exhausted at times and shuts down. Hopefully you'll get your AC back in no time!

    That sucks!! I hope you can get it fixed!

    We don't have air conditioning at all. Thankfully it hasn't gotten really hot this summer.

    You have my sympathy also. Make sure you & the puppers
    drink plenty of water. The wet wash cloth kept for awhile in
    the freezer sounds like a good idea too. Do you pups like ice cubes? It's been unbearably hot & humid here also. Almost
    no air moving at all. Prayers you can get your A/C fixed soon.

    Wow! MN usually only goes up to 105 degrees...That is HOT!! It would suck to loose the a/c at that time!! Good luck and I hope you can keep cooler somehow!
