First of all, my backyard pool was a lovely shade of green. This is not a good sign. So, $100 later....I have poured chemicals into this little "money pit" of mine in hopes of turning the green color into a sparkling blue. (still working on it three days later)
As if that weren't enough, my air-conditioning stopped cooling on Thursday night. That meant a call to the technician on the Fourth of July. That also meant that anything that he had to do would now cost double(gulp) due to the holiday weekend.
The good news was that he replaced the motor ($800) and the air is cool once again. The bad news was that he said that my system was antiquated and would need to be replaced very soon. We are talking in the $10,000 range now to replace the whole system.(gulp, again.)
So, I am trying to keep my mind back to wonderful MN..... holding my newest granddaughter in my arms...and enjoying the antics of my sweet grandson. (sigh) I am hoping that this will lessen the impact of my very expensive (understatement) Fourth of July.
Who needs fireworks when their life is this exciting???

After gushing over the pics of the new baby, I read back over your a/c problems... sorry you're dealing with all that!! How about if you buy the parts and ask Dave to install them?
Congrats to the kids on the new baby, I hope they're all doing well and enjoying the new girl, she's quite a beauty. When are your other son and dil due with their baby?
