I guess I’m one of those people who is pretty hard on themselves. I never guess that the things I’ve accomplished are impressive or noteworthy. I never have a long afternoon and tell myself that “I deserve” to reward myself in any way. Even when I have nothing on my agenda I can’t even supply myself permission to relax and sleep in. That’s why it was a special afternoon when I decided to schedule a lazy afternoon in bed; little did I know that my home’s HVAC system would ruin my large plans. I had nothing on my schedule one summery Tuesday, and decided I was going to lay around in air conditioning all afternoon long, enjoying Netflix and eating yummy popcorn. When I woke up the next morning, but, my room seemed a little warm and stuffy. I checked to make sure that my windows were fully closed, and indeed, they were tightly sealing the warm Summer air outside. I went to the control device and was displeased to see that the indoor air temperature was 74 degrees, even though it was programmed for 70. I tried to adjust the settings, but wasn’t hearing my air conditioner humming in the background. The condo was getting warmer and warmer as the sun rose higher in the sky, and I was calling every HVAC supplier in city trying to schedule an emergency call, however of course, almost everyone was already booked for the morning, and I spent my lazy afternoon resting around in the suffocating heat waiting for the HVAC professional to arrive.
