HOT! HOT! HOT!

It is definitely Monday, and it is the first day of summer. I just had to post on here that it is hot! And our office has no air conditioning today. I came in today and the air conditioning was blowing hot air. We turned it off, I made a trip to Walmart for fans and it is now holding steady at 85 degrees! The landlord says they have called a guy and he is supposed to be here today. But if it is not fixed in an hour or so, we're headed home to where I know it is cool!! In fact I usually have to put on socks at home because my feet get cold. As you may or may not know our office is in an old, old building in downtown Rogers and is made out of concrete blocks, so when the sun hits that side of the building, it will get hotter! And yes, I am complaining. I know I shouldn't but I guess I am spoiled! My Dad worked outside his entire life and I honestly don't know how he did it. He actually worked for SWEPCO as a line crew foreman, and bless those guys hearts, they were always there in the heat and in the cold and ice to make sure we all had electricity. If you see anybody working outside, maybe we should tell them thank you! My Dad has passed on now, and was retired for 9 or 10 years before he died, and now I wish I had told him thank you for what his job was!
Anyway, no big news I just wanted to vent. And if the Rogers Board office is closed this afternoon, you will know why.
Hope you stay cool wherever you work!
