Something is out to get me!!!!

So, I don't believe in fate or omens or karma.

I also think one shouldn't complain all the time

--key word, *think*...i might still complain, but i dont think i should--

but

there is something out to get me! Seriously!

So, when I was pregnant with Eli, I was sick almost the whole time. Guess what made my sickness worse? 

being hot!

guess who lived in provo in one of the hottest summers on record  while pregnant?

me!

guess what didnt work in my apt or car?

my AC!!

Seriously!

We had to have a window unit installed in our apartment for me to even survive!

I didn't go outside unless i had to between 8 am and 6 pm

when I did, and i had to drive my car I wanted to die. The AC would randomly stop working. Like all the time. I even shared the car with my brother-in-law that summer and he said it always worked for him

see...something is out to get me!

THEN!

the next summer, same car, not pregnant, the AC worked all summer in both my car and apartment.

THEN!

this summer, pregnant....AC not working in my car or apartment again!

seriously!!!!!!

like, i had to trade cars with nate and make him drive our ghetto car 20 miles to work, when that car's limit is like 21 miles, only because i couldn't stand the heat (plus poor eli was always so sweaty, especially since the back windows had to be screwed shut!)

and we have run the AC straight for the past few days and its still a constant 75 degrees! it might have cooled down to 72 or 73 last night, but probably not, I just sleep with a fan on me all the time now.

#proof

#dontworry   I am haunting maintenance until they fix it, since they've been over twice in the past month and not done so.

#lovehaterelationshipwithmaintenance

So, this morning Eli and I went to the gym...they must not have the AC working in there either because by the end of my workout i was dripping sweat everywhere. Which is not a normal 8 month pregnant lady type of workout for me. (These days I go to the gym just to make me feel better :) i guess, haha)

So, i am basically going to sit here at my apartment dying of heat until this baby comes. Then maybe maintenance will come fix my AC around the time the baby is here.
#praythey'llcomesooner!!!

Nate said it must just be something that I have to go through during pregnancy since the intense heat only comes on and the AC stops working only while I'm prego

haha

well, to make all of you feel better about my situation

this is the beautiful view we get when we cross the street to look at the "horsie" and "cow" everyday

colorado really is beautiful! and the mountains...well, you can't see them in this picture, but they are breathtaking! so panoramic!

have a good day!

and make sure to enjoy your AC for me!!!!

update

this is the next day.
I didn't post the above post because.....our car broke down :(

yep, it finally went on us. Luckily nate was the one driving it, and I wasnt stuck in the heat and then the rain and then in the sweaty passenger seat of the tow truck.

so besides that, the other worse news is that...
things are getting hot in here!
look!

78 degrees!!!!! in my house!!!!!!!

like, "don't touch me! don't look at me! don't even think hot thoughts!" 

The AC has been on non-stop for 3 days, and the temp is only rising.

And now after meddling with the gage, I messed it up and it won't change its "target" temperature, and i turned and yelled...well, loudly said "oh no!!!! we are going to die!" and Eli started crying. 

So after consoling him and telling him we were not going to die

this happened

This is Eli crying because he wants me to turn the fan off. He stands in front of it and cries and doesn't move but just points and says "off--off".   

Its cute and sad at the same time.

So, what are we doing to stay cool?

well, all my blinds are shut

the lights are off

the fan is staying on (sorry Eli)

and I am not doing laundry

even though i should, because my favorite,...ok, only prego yoga pants are dirty

So, I am in some old BYU-I shorts and a shirt that gives my lower belly a draft (at least that part of me is cool...haha, no visitors please.)

We have no where to escape to because i don't have a car

So, if you know of anyone who goes around sabotaging pregnant women, can you please call the cops on them??? this isn't very fun 

hopefully tomorrow there will be better news!
