One of our HVACs is struggling, the building apparently "cleaned up the water system" while we were gone.  My guess is some gunk hot into our innards.  My HVAC guy is coming Friday.  The upstairs unit is working normally.  I coaxed the troubled unit to warm the place to 70°F where it's holding, for now, but it's quite warm here, maybe record high T today.

I have baseball coming up soon, so I expect to hit the park today for some throwing and running.

I set the thermostat about 2 months out of the year (peak summer A/C). I don't run heat in the winter. 

Wait, this is the "happy" thread, right?

Supposedly we set a record for CE today high T.  I was out throwing, it was kind of warmish.  Supposedly 75°F. My watch says 72.

Given our main HVAC is having some issues this is OK with me.

I started buying a few silver 1 ounce "rounds" a few years back just to have some in case of something.  I remember paying $22 or so, then $27, then it went near $40 and I stopped buying any, I was buying maybe 6-8 at a time.  Now it's $75.  Holy Hunt Brothers.
