Adventure in Heat in South Texas

Last night our A/C quit. One minute it was a cool 80 degrees in here, the next it was topping out at 94 degrees! Luckily when we bought the house we also made the seller buy a home warranty for us so any problems are covered with the home warranty, the only problem is we had to call the home warranty company who then put in a work order to a local company contracted to do A/C work for them and it can take up to 48 hours for them to contact you. Luckily they contacted us this morning and were out here by 2 pm today and had the problem fixed before 3. It was a rough night of almost no sleep last night because it was so hot in here. Poor Walter couldn't bear the heat, he kept panting and meowing, we think he probably lost another of his nine lives leaving him with only one more left after the duffel bag/hotel experience from the move. I think Justin, Annabelle and I are all a little smaller from sweating it out for a day. We spent most of the day today outside in Annabelle's little blow up pool (thank goodness we have that!) & Annabelle and I both got a little sunburnt even with sunscreen! Everything is hotter (and yes bigger-including the bugs, lizards and toads) in Texas.
