We finally found a portable air conditioner (at Home Depot) that actually cools down the air instead of increasing the temperature. It has a "follow-me" remote, louvres to change the air direction, turbo mode and more. It joined our family last night so Doug and I actually got a decent night of sleep. Yippee! At 97 degrees today, it's a bit slow to get going (room temp was 96 when we got home from errands) but 3 hours later, it's 10 degrees colder already! Yes, we love our new air conditioner and no, we're not being compensated for this paragraph!
As to our wonderful yard/Thornton code compliance problem, we went to Paulino's nursery today where a wonderful woman (Kristi?) gave us advice on our plans to landscape our front yard with two new trees and some shrubs. However, it's a bit more expensive than we expected. So after more errands, I got out the Burgess catalog and made plans for an order for tomorrow or Monday: yellow daffodil bulbs to bloom in early Spring, a hosta for a shady area, several of a Siberian elm hedge for two parts of the front yard, a weeping willow and a Norway spruce. Should look great! Hope they come in quickly so we can get it planted and everything can start putting down roots and growing before cold weather gets here (like that's gonna happen any time soon!).
Also going to put in an order for some Patch Perfect - that treated grass seed. Since our last attempt still didn't produce grass, we're hoping this stuff will. Wonder if they have a guarantee? Vikki
