weary

Well. I have not written for a few days..it has been hectic...this is day number 2 on working for the weekend and surprise, when I woke up the air is out again...just great...lucky the kids were at the beach and were not home, but that is just great for them to come home to a hot house...It had gone out during the week while I was off work. I woke up to the house being almost 90 degrees. I called my friend in a panic and he called our ac guys, my guy who does my ac could not come out to see me...so David called his guy, who happens to be partners together..Dan dropped everything to come out and try to fix it....It worked for awhile, then went out again. I shut the whole system down and called my ac guy again who stated that he would come out the next day...in the mean time, my laundry is piling up to the point of being overwhelming...I decided at 1000 at night to take it to the laundry mat. at 200 am we are finally done, my daughter went with me...My husband called while I was there and proceeded to tell me how to take care of the ac, doing stuff that I have already done....we turned the unit off for the night, the house cooled down some and then the my ac guy showed up the next day...the unit was totally frozen over...we had to put the heat on to defrost it, push water up the drain pipe backwards to flush it and then use a wet dry vac to pull the water out...the unit then started working...so we are good until yesterday when I woke up to the house being 90 again...savanna then tells me that it had frozen up on her while I had been at work, but that she flushed the line and defrosted and it started to work again...well approx 30 min into doing the stuff all over again, the whole unit stopped working, no power to the unit...we tried the circuit breaker, nothing and no one could come out to me until tomorrow maybe, but more than likely Monday. My friend David called his ac guy, Dan, who said that that was unacceptable and would be out tomorrow, which is hopefully anytime now. He told me to trip the breaker off for the night. I sent the kids to Davids and Lori's house so they were comfortable...oh and by the way they have sunburns...of course I heard from Scott last night at work and he proceeded to let me have it...telling me to just shut up and listening, which is not like him...I tried to tell him what is going on, what we had done, but he did not want to listen, he wanted to tell me he knew what was wrong and that I needed to listen to him so he could help me fix it...after he did his little tizzy, I proceeded to tell him that I was not stupid, that I could handle stuff, that he was treating me like I was stupid and that I was causing the problems, that I would not listen and if I did, then things would be fine...he really pisses me off. every time he goes, he acts like we will just fall all apart when he leaves. That I am not capable of taking care of things and handling them..He gets an attitude and tells me that he would not have to ask all these questions to try to fix it, if I would just offer him all the information...I informed him, one, I am slightly busy trying to get it fixed, trying to work, trying to pay bills and trying to make sure the girls were taken care of, that I did email him the basic of the problem. I told him that if he did not have all the information, that before he just assumes that it is us that are screwing things up, ask questions. It is not always about us telling him every little detail...communication is on person tell another a story and then if the other person needs more information, then to ask in a nice manner for more details before assuming that someone is screwing up...needless to say, it is and was not a nice conversation for being million miles away and my air is still broke...
