\"The<\/a>At noon Saturday, I wrote on Facebook: \u00a0“Hmmm, the fan on my central a\/c seems to have stopped working. \u00a0At 77 degrees, it’s cool enough in here without it for right now. I checked the circuit breakers and flipped them. \u00a0Nothing. \u00a0In August 2005 I got the new a\/c. \u00a0It has a ten year warranty on the compressor and coils.” \u00a0Several friends suggested it might be the capacitor, but we checked and the capacitor was fine. \u00a0I arranged for American Air and Heat<\/a> (who installed it) to come out at 9:00am on tomorrow morning. \u00a0In the meantime, I wanted to have everything opened up and ready for the service dude to look at once he got here. \u00a0I\u00a0opened up the unit in the hall closet inside the house and the central fan motor thingy on the pc board was not lighting up… \u00a0I turned the unit and breaker off and unplugged the fuse. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Saturday evening, we had the windows open and listened to a gentle rain fall. \u00a0A mildly cool breeze blew all night. \u00a0I set my bedroom fan right in front of the open window so the air would be directed on me. \u00a0I love to feel the air on me as I lay in bed relaxing into sleep. \u00a0It was a breezy night and I slept comfy and grateful! Today, Sunday, it even stayed coolish during the heat of the day since the house is under a canopy of oak and pine trees. I have to laugh, I have such a comfy life that this feels like a camping adventure to me, having no a\/c. Yes, we’re really roughing it over here. \u00a0Fingers crossed, we’ll see what I attract! \u00a0So far, Donna with \u00a0American Air and Heat<\/a>, who did the original installation, has been awesome with me by phone from a customer service point of view, letting me know exactly when someone can come out and answering my myriad of questions. \u00a0I feel I’m in good hands. \u00a0Fingers crossed, I’m thinking a\/c by 10:00am Monday and an invoice that pleases me. \u00a0Today was, start to finish, a wonderfully satisfying and pleasant day. \u00a0Good food, good company, good music, good work. \u00a0I live in Paradise and I love my life.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:\u00a0 They had to replace the blower and module, to the tune of $1109.\u00a0 I love it when the Universe makes me stretch my boundaries to allow more good to come in!<\/p>\n
