Second Verse, Same as the First

Ugh. After working exhaustingly long hours at our respective jobs, Hubby and I arrived home last night and walked in to an oven. Yes, our air conditioning - which was working fine after last week's maintenance call was resolved by repairing a short in the unit - was out.

The maintenance man (hereafter referred to as TMM) said it looked like the unit had frozen up and said that it should be fine after giving it time to thaw out. He let us in to the "corporate apartment" (hereafter referred to as the CA) and said he would make sure in the morning that this was the issue and that everything was working.

So Hubby and I did the flight of the bumblebee in a 90 degree apartment to pack everything we would need for the 2 of us and 2 cats to move across the apartment complex for the night.

Today TMM informed us that the unit had not, in fact, frozen up. The coils had actually burned out. TMM tells us that we will be in the CA for at least another night.

So we're on a "vacation" of sorts for a couple of days. Nice change of scenery at least. I'll post pics if I ever get around to taking them.

Ugh! At least they have a place to put you up until it's fixed. Was it just the unit for your apartment or did it affect others too? Hope the kitties were okay. Celeste kinda scared us when we moved y'all out there because she started panting. I hope they get it fixed soon - that's sooooo annoying!
