Anne, did you go through that awful heat wave without an AC??

I did Kitty, but as Lara so rightly said, the state I live in at the moment is much cooler than all the others here in Oz.

We had the gas man in today to replace the gas cylinders for our heater, but do you think the heater will work tonight, even with full gas cylinders??
No way!

Oh well, looks like tomorrow we get the heater man out to check the heater.....

Our latest stimulus package won't last long the way we're going!

.........

BTW and totally off topic ...... I dyed my hair today.
.....................
Does that mean I have to start a whole new thread??

Nah.......not unless you want to start a new thread about hair color! I colored my hair, too, but it was on Monday.

What color did you use?

78 degrees. I'll turn it down for a couple hours when the air has too much water in it.

Between 72 & 75. I turn it up a bit at night as once the sun sets it cools down outside quickly and it feels cooler inside.

I didn't get a vote as we keep ours on 80 or 82 degrees. We have a nice dry climate and a breeze nearly all the time so rarely use the ac even when temps are above 100.

We have no trees but somehow the house stays cool with just ceiling fans and a few floor fans so we are fortunate!

The desert cools at night so nice we can keep windows open to hear the coyotes sing!

We keep it at 74 here. We also have a ceiling fan in all of our rooms.

We have ceiling fans in most every room, and open the windows alot, but once the temps outside hit close to 80, I become non functional, and MUST seek shelter or sit in someone's fridge. Mine is normally set on 72, but I will lower it to keep me blasted if I am having a tough day. Once it starts heading towards 75 and above outside, I seek shade, and cooler spots, once it hits 80 I am inside, and in the dark. After that, its all shades down, curtains closed, and AC blasting.
