Well, folks, our HVAC unit has officially entered its "leaky drama" era. Again. For the second time in six months, it decided today was a great day for an encore performance of its famous "leak everywhere and quit working" routine. Two times in half a year? That’s real commitment to the craft. 🎭💦
But hey, practicing gratitude here: We are actively choosing to be thankful it’s 90° and humid right now, instead of -20° in a blizzard.
