Dad to the Rescue

I walked in after work and the boys were both on the couch watching a movie in their underwear. WHAT? Then after being in the house for about 2 minutes I realized it was way too hot (and was tempted to strip down into my undies too). I checked the thermostat and it was on cool, but it was 87 degrees in the house. UGH. So what did I do? Called my dad. He told me to check the breaker and I couldn't find it so he jumped on his bike and rode over. The breaker ended up being outside but that wasn't the problem. My a/c unit was overgrown by the bushes so I started trimming them back but it was completely frozen. So my dad went home got his phone book out for some coupons and brought me back a number to call. They were going to be able to come in the morning from 8-10 so of course my parents were going to come over to take care of it since I'd be at work (seriously, best parents ever!) My dad brought over his portable a/c unit so I could at least sleep that night.

The repair man came and fixed my a/c and all is well at home now. I am just so glad that my dad is always there to help me since Todd is traveling so much. It makes life so much easier for me and I know Todd is grateful in knowing I am taken care of when he's gone and can't take care of me himself.
