Earlier this year I upgraded from the basement, in what was very loosly called a bedroom, to what I fondly refer to as my "Big Girl Bedroom" (see photog). Even though it is literally a bed-room, because it really only fits my bed; it has it's own bathroom (not pictured) that I have LOVED!!!!! My one BIG BIG problem with this room is that I moved from the cement walled, dark, cool basement into a tiny upstairs room, directly above the heater, with only a dinky fan (that you can't turn up to full blast because it makes noises that hint to it's horrifying crash onto my sleeping body in the night). Where am I going with this?.... Stay tuned...
I have always been one to sleep best when the temp is on the low side. Just enough that when you roll over, the half of the pillow you weren't just using feels refreshingly cool on your face. Ah! I love that! Anyway, this room has NEVER allowed for that. Winter nights spent (un-be-knownst to my tightwad father who would kill me) with the window open, only encouraged the heater more (which by they way has been taped up and covered with an old French text book to keep any heat from sneaking out). Showering in the mornings is a nightmare! By the time I've showered, blow dried and straightened my hair, I'm so hot that I'm ready to shower again. SERIOUSLY! Now to the point.... I have looked past the intsy space problem, the overflowing closet, and the noisy fan, but the heat was giving me serious grief. Today following a fabulous post-work nap, my wonderful father figure came into my room, untaped the vent and removed the textbook, and guess what.....!? Pouring out came the most beautiful thing... Air conditioned air!!!! SOO GREAT!!! I can't wait to go to sleep tonight!!!!!! Heavenly Father, thank you so much for the technology that made air conditioning possible! And please bless that I never sin so much that you take it away from me!
