Still working!

I am still working on the house when I can. This weekend I plan on being there quite a bit and then next week my mom is coming into town! She is planning on staying Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and helping me with the house. I am going to take off Monday, so hopefully a lot will get done!
Also I would like to tell you about the A/C problems that have been following me around the past two weeks! For 5 days, the A/C was out at my work place. There is some construction going on around the corner and the people working on the building hit a main water line. Considering how old this campus is, the line that was broken caused 3 buildings to be with out air! It was miserable. Two of the days we left early and the rest of the time was spent in our main office in the Ferguson Center.
So while the air was out at work, I went home one day to find the air was also out at my apt. I called for them to come fix it. The unit was frozen over! Of course they came the next day (last Thursday) and it was up and running by that afternoon. Well I get home Friday and it was OUT AGAIN!!! At that point I was mad cause I knew they would not come look at it till Monday! Thankfully, I had planned on leaving for Hamilton anyways, so I turned it off and left. They came again on Monday and said they fixed the problem.
**On a side note: I have been living at this apt for 3 years now. I have personally called about the A/C at least 40 times over the past summers. I have also tried to get them to replace the whole thing cause it does not cool like it should, but they are cheap cheap people that would rather not fix anything unless absolutely necessary.**
Anyways, this past Wednesday it went out again!!! (3 times in one week!) I called the anwsering service that night and called again the next morning. I spoke with a man and told him the situtation and the replied was "Oh yeah, I worked on that unit on Monday. I know what is wrong. The compressor has gone bad. We will probably have to replace the outside unit." ARE YOU KIDDING ME! That man left my apt on Monday and said the air was fixed and 3 days later he tells me he knows what the problem is! Why didn't they correct the compressor problem to begin with?!? Yesterday, they came and charged the unit so it would last until they could replace it. This story ends today (hopefully) with the apt getting a new outside unit! I am going to call around lunch and check on the progress!
On another note, my camera is still broken. I am waiting on Best Buy to send me a PO so that I can send the camera back to the manufacturer. I was suppose to get this PO a couple of weeks ago. Well I call yesterday and asked them for another one. Maybe this time it will get here!!!
Nevertheless, here are some random picture I have taken over the past week with my camera phone!

Carrie Beth and Lee's new puppy, TANK!! He is a toy poodle with A LOT of energy!

I finally found some time to layout! It had been a long 13 weeks without layout or going to the tanning bed! I got pretty red but within a day or two I was nice and golden! I am not very good at layout by myself because I get really bored! So this is a picture of my feet blocking the sun! (Told you i get bored!)
