Yes, Size REALLY does matter!

Okay, if you follow me on twitter, then you've heard my lamenting of over air conditioning woes. In fact, I whined about it on here, about 3 weeks ago. It was a long, irritating, expensive process!!! But now we have our air conditioner!!!

No, that's not it. That's the lame little unit we had.

We added onto our house a couple of years ago. When we bought it, it was a whopping 900 square feet. Now it's almost 1400. So you can imagine that our air conditioner which was bought 14 years ago for the 900 square foot house just wasn't cutting it anymore, even before it broke down.

Some of the lovely features of this old unit were the rust covered top and the messed up metal thingies on the side. I know. I know! How could I ever part with it!? It was difficult. Let me tell you!

So now we have this...

Isn't it just the sexiest piece of HVAC equipment that you have ever seen??? I know you're all so jealous! ;) I mean look at the size of that beast!!! No really, go back and compare it to what we had before!!!

Yes, size really does matter! At least in Air Conditioners! It's like the most amazing thing ever. The air that comes out of the vents is cold! Who'd have thought that was even possible! I think our old unit was working as a big expensive fan for this whole season to be quite honest. Oh well, it has been given a grand farewell and sent off to air conditioner heaven, and we have our new friend!

13 of my Favorite Quotes from Fiona O'Sithein I'm too darn sleepy to be creative tonight so I'm drawing on my ready-made list. Not to be confused with the one I did about the first lines of the chapters in Fiona. Those weren't nearly my favorites. Is it narcissistic to have favorite quotes that you wrote yourself? When I'm giggling my head off at something I wrote, my husband always looks at me kinda funny. Oh, well if it is, then here is me reveling in narcissism. :-D May you enjoy them as much as I do. 1. Fiona: “What? You think just because I don’t have any magic like my brother or super strength like you people that I’m useless?” 2. Bonnie: “He’s not a heretic, is he?” Fiona: “Isn’t everyone these days?” 3. Fiona: “No one wants to be the one to deflower the king’s daughter.” 4. Fiona: “Yes, Beltran, you’re a vampire. How could anyone forget it when you’re reminding them of it ten times a day? You are the only vampire I know who seems to obsess ab...

Thirteen Things that take My Breath Away 1. This little Guy... Need I say More? 2. Eden Falls at the Lost Valley This picture doesn't even remotely do it justice. The first time I saw Eden Falls was in the middle of the summer after a big rain storm so there was water absolutely gushing from it! It made getting into the cave at the top somewhat more difficult than usual, but it was absolutely beautiful. I had never seen anywhere like it in my life. I thought places like that only existed in wall calenders! 3. The Ocean The vastness of it. The sound of the waves. The smell of it. That humid, cool wind that blows off it. The way it moves. Pretty much everything about it! *Lesley desperately needs a trip to the beach* 4. The Ozark Mountains My home! The very first time I came here I just knew this was where I wanted to be. I grew up on the delta with nothing but rice fields and flat land as far as the eye can see. There is a place on the drive up the mountain where you come around a c...

Well, I had been planning on putting up 13 pictures from my vacation, but my computer crashed yesterday and has to go to the doctor. I hope they can fix it, because I haven't backed up those 450 pictures I took. :-( I did upload all the really cute ones of Nicky to snapfish though, so at least there is that. This brings me to the question I have for y'all...Does anyone have a good gremlin banishing ritual they would like to share with me??? Just this week, my fridge, my car and my computer have all stopped working. The car was just a battery problem, and it has been replaced. I still don't know what is wrong with the computer or the fridge yet though. Without pictures but still in honor of my vacation... 13 Things I Did in Denmark Fed the ducks, swans, and geese at Damhus Lake. Nicky loved this! He was absolutely entranced by the birds. His favorite part (and keep in mind, he is a boy) was throwing the bread so that it landed on the swans back and then laughing hyst...
