MORE THAN READY FOR SUMMER

Finally.  Even though today is cool and pleasant and fleece-worthy, today is the day the air conditioners finally go into the windows.  This is the absolute latest we have ever put the units into the windows. Sure, there have been a couple of warm days and evenings, but so far, anyway, the overnights have been reasonably cool. 

Monday, though ... Monday is supposed to be a meltdown.  Monday will be burn-my-hands-on-the-steering-wheel-after-work hot.  There is no way I want to come home from work Monday to a House of Humid Horror.  So, today the ac units make their ways to their respective windows: one in the living room, one in the kitchen, and one each in the bedrooms because, hey, who doesn't want to sleep with a quilt inside when it's ninety degrees outside. 

To celebrate this momentous occasion, I change the empty gas canister out of the grill (well, my son does because I can't turn the damn thing) and cook up some burgers.  It's like a pre-summer bonanza over here.  Burgers on the grill, air conditioners in the window, and it's still cool enough to be tolerable. 

We're ready, though.  We're all burgered-up and plugged in and the fans are all set, too.  Show us what you've got, Summer.  We are more than ready for you.
