I’m really glad that we live in a good neighborhood where we can rely on our neighbors for help. The other day when we lost power it was a massive help when our neighbor allowed us to come over and shower at his place. He even let us take food and water from his refrigerator until we could get our own power reinstated. It was very kind of him and it made us a lot more comfortable in the sweltering hot and humid climate that we have been dealing with all summer. Of course, we should have known that our indoor air handling troubles were over with. Even when we had energy at our house again the air conditioning system would not work. That’s when we realized that when we lost power we also had an energy surge fry our expensive central cooling device. Suddenly, it was looking like we were going to have weeks of unmanaged indoor air quality before we could afford to hire a professional heating and cooling technician for a repair service or a full air conditioning replacement. Obviously, we were devastated at the thought of living in this oppressively hot environment without any air conditioning control indoors. Again, this is when our neighbor stepped up and saved our butts. Apparently he heard our concerned discussions about the cooling system, because he came walking over with an AC window unit in hand 5 minutes later. We have been limping along with the AC window unit installed in our bedroom for some indoor air temperature control. Until we can afford a new AC unit, we will be relying on my neighbor’s kindness.
