The good...
I've been sewing, and scrapping, and a LITTLE knitting. Most of the weekend was spent away from the house, so there was only a LITTLE knitting done. So maybe THIS weekend you will see a FO! LOL. The last few nights have been spent like this:
Laptop so I can instant message while using my sewing machine and serger....good stuff lol. I'm learning ya'll!!!! This is exciting! LOL. I am actually enjoying my mistakes....because I then see how to do it the correct way, or better. YAY! lol. Thank GOD for a seam ripper!
The Bad...
It started getting hot in the house. I "thought" it was because it's just been so hot outside....and I was sewing...with both my machines on, lights and iron, it get's kinda warm....but when I woke up and it was 80 in the house...at 5am......well....had to make a call...
The Ugly...
These are TWO things you do NOT want to see at your house, in the middle of the summer, at the SAME time....
The air conditioner man's truck....
and the above man looking at your unit. Now...we JUST got a new outdoor unit last year....they think the problem is the INDOOR UNIT!!!! The did something to it, so HOPEFULLY it will work. I would cross my fingers but it's just too hot for any part of my body to touch the other.
Here are some Pom-Poms for my girl...you can do it! LOL.
And that is all for me....
Toodles!!!!!
The pom-poms are really cute! Glad to hear you got to be somewhat creative this weekend.
Hope you are nice and cool now!!

Ohhh! That happened to us this summer (losing air conditioning) for ONE MONTH solid! We got a window unit for the master bedroom while we waited for confirmation of our breakage, multiple inspections and estimates, and installation. In that month we all lived in the little room, moving everyone's beds in there even. Good luck with your air! Get it fixed SOON!

I hope your a/c is working again, that would really not be pleasant in the summer!
Posted by: Wanda | August 06, 2007 at 11:39 PM
You better tell them that we are notorious for IMing and sewing at the same time! LOL Did they get the air back on?

My dh had to have someone to check our air today too.Something is wrong with the on and off switch on the central air unit.We had to buy a new one!!!Why do things like this happen when it is 90 degrees outside!!

ah man, I have to call the AC guy in the moring because ours is out!!
Saw you on the Scrap Etc board! Will you be at the event in April? I plan to attend and would love to say hi to you face to face!!

An air conditioner failure with be the worst think that could happen to me too. No one can work or even thing with all this heat. Hopefully you'll get it fixed.

wow!
Posted by: toya | August 07, 2007 at 05:12 AM
I don't know how you can IM while sewing!! I wouldn't be able to do both at once. Hope that air conditioning situation gets straightened out soon - we went through some issues with that earlier this summer - funny, we had bought our unit last year too.
Posted by: robin | August 07, 2007 at 05:39 AM
Oh man, I hope your A/C gets fixed soon and inexpensively!
Posted by: Gorgeous Things | August 07, 2007 at 07:06 AM
I hope all is well with your AC. It has been too hot to not be with something to keep you cool.
Posted by: Lu | August 07, 2007 at 08:33 AM
Good luck with the air conditioning.
I love the pom poms! Very cute!
Sewing and instant messaging. I can't see that one!

Oh my goodness! I hope you get some relief soon!! In the meantime, get a fan and keep on making pretty things for us to admire.:)
Posted by: Solidia | August 07, 2007 at 09:29 AM
OHHH I hope your AC is back up and running!!!
Posted by: Michelle | August 07, 2007 at 09:50 AM
I see you are the ultimate multitasker. I have to focus on one thing at a time.
Sorry about your air. Mine went out in early summer, fortunately it was a minor repair problem to get it back working. We went 3 days without air and I like to have died!!!
Hope it gets fixed soon. We are supposed to be in the triple digits for the next couple of days.

I hear ya about the AC repairman. Our indoor unit is less than 3 years old and already needs to be replaced...not that we can use it under the current circumstances anyway.
I hope your AC problem goes away really soon!! At least it's relatively dry where I live, I couldn't imagine being hot and humid and having no AC!!!

The only positive from living in a country with no summer (ie England) is that I never have air conditioning problems. Of course, I wouldn't immediately recognise the sun either if it should make an appearance - so it's not all good! :)
Posted by: Soo | August 07, 2007 at 01:01 PM
that heat in alabama is no joke. i remember those days living in the dorms with no a/c, terrible!!! i hope you've got that all taken care of by now.
ROFL @ sewing, knitting, and IM'in at the same time. you truly gotta know how to multi-task nowadays. :-D
Posted by: anna | August 07, 2007 at 02:43 PM
hope the air conditioning is working!!!!
the pom pom's are super cute too.
Posted by: amber | August 07, 2007 at 05:15 PM
Really cute pom-poms! Hope your air conditioning works! Nothing worse than really hot summer days without AC.
Posted by: Maria | August 07, 2007 at 07:41 PM
UGH!! I hope you have AC by now! It has been soooo hot here (99 today, 100 tomorrow) and I think my poor AC is starting to groan!! LOL... :)
Posted by: Jude | August 07, 2007 at 07:49 PM
Oh man...it is TOO hot to not have air conditioning. Is it all fixed up now??? You know you can always pop in over here if you need to!!!
I haven't scrapped in ages, butI'm about to go work on a page I think!

I have missed alot. First glad Kayla's surgery went well. I hope she is feeling much better. I hope they got your unit working right, I know if we lose A/C right now I will check into a hotel for sure. We are now hitting triple digits. Last, projects looking lovely in here. I am so far behind on a lot but I'm 2 days into my new job(last day was Friday at work) so I'm hoping to catch up on alot. I'm in dire need of fabric and yarn. I see a shopping trip in my very near future. lol have a good night.
