Well, both accordion doors have been installed, and there is a rumor it will be over 100 degrees on Thursday and Friday, so I will test them out then and see how efficient it makes the AC. Since the kids will be in school, and the after-school program does not start until Sept 2nd, I will have three weeks of nothing to do except play on the computer, or watch TV. Speaking of which, I need to upgrade my economy cable package so I can get ESPN this month and watch the little league world series.

Afternoon Clint.

Foam in a can, yeah that would work sealing the small cracks around the AC, but I was more interested in sealing off the kitchen and hallway. I am sure that once the temps get back up over 100 degrees, the AC will cool down the living room much quicker now that those two big "leaks" are plugged.

Ok back now, had to make a bit of margaritas. Damn things have me hooked in afternoon. Could be worse I guess.
Wife informed us of leftovers (Marsala chicken) quite yummy actually but the buck was pushing the pizza card. No dog in this fight so I`ll quietly sip my treat
