Comment on Life Without Air Conditioning (is it possible?) by Rhonda Cooper

We are doing the same this year. So far so good. As you said the humidity here in Tenn. makes the temp feel alot hotter than it is. We have one small window unit that we kick on around 4:00pm. for a couple of hours. And small unit that is ducted in to the music room that we turn on about an hour or so before practice. We have been able to save on the electic bill a good amount. I love having the windows open at night. There is no better way to go to sleep than listen to a night time lullaby by God’s critters.
As for trying to not heat the house up while cooking. My mom taught me along time ago to cook all meals for the day in the morning before it heated up outside. Also I have been checking into summer kitchens. We are planning an addition to the bank of the house that includes an extra dinning area, but I think I would like to have an out-door kitcken instead. Maybe a screened in area with a stove or grill. My grandmother recently build a cabin on Ballplay that has a wood burning stove in the kitchen. She uses a grill on the front porch for cooking during this time of the year.
It sound like you are having a grand adventure in your new home. And I know that the Lord has so much more in store for you and your family. God Bless. And Happy Birthday Kate.

Happy Birthday to your big girl!!! This year my oldest is turning 5 and it is really hitting me hard. I wasn’t prepared for them to grow up so quickly. Love the photos. Your kids are SO cute.

This one almost made me cry. You know, I never can figure out which is stronger, a parents love for their children or a grandparents love for their grandchildren. I love you guys. Kim, you have always been a blessing in my life. There for a reason. An angel to remind me what life is like when you stick with your faith.

Tami,

Nope, I’m afraid I”m not that creative, but I just loved it! What a challenge! I couldn’t find out where it came from.
