Why is it so hot in here?

This morning, Munchkin had her baseball team pictures.  Since D is the coach, he normally gets a team picture.  This time, they allowed the coach (if they had a child on the team) to get a “buddy shot” with their child instead of the team picture. We chose to go this route as we’ll already be getting a team picture for Munchkin.  I was happy that they offered this option to him.

After pictures, it was time to head over to the baseball field for the game.  It was warm, but not as hot as last week.  The players were glad that we went back to coach pitch this week.  (They allowed the kids to try kid pitch last week, and it did not go all that well.)  Both teams played well, but we ended up on top this week.  Their best player wasn’t there for the game, so that made a huge difference in the outcome of the game.  That is not to take away from the play of our guys because they are making huge improvements from week to week.

When we arrived home, the house felt a little warm, but we didn’t think too much of it.  It was getting hot out, so we thought the ac hadn’t kicked on quite yet.  We soon realized that the ac was not working.  It was blowing out air, but not cool air.  D placed a call to the base housing office, and they sent someone over fairly quickly.  When he arrived, he found that the ac unit outside was not working.  He placed a call to the ac repair guy.  Within an hour, the ac repair man had arrived.  Apparently, some component on the unit had fried and needed to be replaced.  As soon as that was replaced, the cool air started flowing from the vents.

We were so grateful for the quick response, and we’re enjoying the cooler house.  Munchkin was bummed because we were suppose to go see How to Train a Dragon at the base theater today, but we couldn’t leave the house due to the repairs on the ac unit.  Thankfully, she’s now bouncing on the trampoline with her friend and having a great time.  D is washing the vehicles now that the sun is going down.

Overall, it was a lovely day even with the craziness of a broken ac unit….
