8.1.14
Most of our summer has been ok in central NC where I live. We've had and continue to have a "hot spell" followed by "a cooler spell". For instance, last week we had 90's. This week we are in 80's or 70's (70's are unusual this time of year) but it is supposed to be HOT 90's again next week.

As for the animals, Annie outside dog always digs out a place to stay cool. I've run the a/c nearly day since late April due to heat and/or humidity. I dont think she cares if it's hot or cold. It's on now and it's 71 outside with rain.

LilGirl gets cool with the a/c so I keep her covered with her blankie. When we go outside on a sunny hot day, she just lays in the sun and soaks in it. She prefers hot weather. In the winter when we're outside and after she's done her bathroom, my b/f picks her up and puts her in his jacket.

Sissy has thick hair & I don't think I've ever seen her cold even in snow. She pants in hot weather & I'm sure she prefers a/c and cooler weather..

George I think prefers to be in one of the warmer rooms but I'm not sure. He spends time in all rooms. Who knows with Georgie? If he has had one of his running/fighting moods, then he gets hot LOL.

For me, I don't think I could make it without a/c and to think that I grew up in an old house that only had a window fan! I think maybe we or at least I am spoiled by modern conveniences.... love a/c. I prefer cooler weather to hot.
