I am not looking foward to winter at all. I know its only fall but I am already freezing my butt off at night. My husband cannot sleep without the aircon on or the ceiling fans - just as well I sleep with two duvets!!!
Our Aircon is leaking (apparently through to the first floor because of a clogged pipe or overflow of the condensate drain) and we are waiting on our landlord to send their plumber to fix it. It's been over a week now and still nothing. My husband is not in a good mood because it's not cool in our house. I am happy because the aircon is not on and I am warm LOL
Are you cold where you are? have you noticed that its a little colder at nights and early in the mornings? Do you like the cold? or are you like me, freezing your butt off and trying to keep warm?!?

Yep, its getting nippy around progamerland too. The lows are getting to the 50s and 40s. Sad part is the days are still pretty hot. Sigh... can't we just get normal end of summer/autumn weather.

the weather that we are having right here in metro manila, philippines, is not very friendly either. the cold nights maybe inducive of better sleep but, the intermittent rains are too haunting. rains come without warning anytime of the day then practically, everynight. it is difficult when the rains fall everyday intermittently. it rains for a few minutes or for an hour then it stops. not for long though because very soon it will rain again. this is the reason why lots of persons have caught the flu and other types of minor illness. not alarming but it is very disturbing.

We just had a serious adjustment in temperature, and now we know fall is here! Yesterday the temperature was literally in the upper 70's lower 80's, and right now we are in the upper 40's, and it doesn't look like it's going to get much warmer. I can't believe what a big temperature change we have had! Geography is definitely strange!

I know what you mean, only yesterday the temperature shot up to the 70s and lower 80s and had stayed there for today. However the sun is not shining and its overcast but its very humid and muggy, weird weather alright!

Its colder in our place but not as cold there when winter comes. Philippines is a tropical country that is why it is still warm. we still need fans and aircon. Not in all place here thought, like Baguio City is also cold, you need to warm your butt, lol...

Well sweety it is getting colder where we are and I am quite glad of it as although we don't get the very hot weather even the warmth is unbearable as a side-effect of all my medications seems to be overheating! I hate being cold though and yesterday I made my other half put the heating on so I wouldn't get cold when I came out of my nice hot bath! Hope it takes a whilew to get your air con fixed sweety - for your sake! xxxx

hahaha I am enjoying the fact that it has been off for a week or so. I got told this morning by the hubby that the landlord and his plumber are visiting on Monday so looks like today is the last day of "no aircon" :):) I think I'll take a long hot bath too! Have a lovely day mummymo xxox

I swear our husbands are just alike! Chill guys and can't stand to be hot. It's getting colder here and my husband still has to have ceiling fans on and the air conditioner running! He gets hot really easy and I have to suffer! Ha ha. Actually, after all these years with him, my body has pretty much adapted to his temperature preferences. It's not as cold here yet as I would like it to be, but it's getting there. You know how I feel about hoodie weather!:P I'm ready for it to get colder here...ha ha...I just want to be able to drag out all my cute coats.

hahaha you would think that I would be able to adjust quite easily to the aircon and fan, well apparently I haven't and can't stand either being on. Oh well, I will just have to put my hoodies on too :)

Hahaha, no matter who i lived with in my life they have always been cold while i have been warm. Right now it is Mette complaining that it is cold. When i get to her room i feel a wall of heat comming against me. I dont like freeziing but thing is i rarely do no matter how cold it is. I never have heating on in my bedroom and window is always slightly open all year arround. Only time it is closed is if we have storms or blizzards. I love get in a cool bed and will turn duvet several times a night to get the cool side down. :) Lovely, init?

haha nope! I prefer it to me nice and warm than cold. Fall isn't too bad as there are some still nice warm days but the early mornings and evenings get to me.

Its starting to get cooler where I live too. I am not looking orward to winter neither. I like the warm weather but not when its real hot. I can deal with the cold better then the hot. It seems like we just got done with winter and here it comes again. At least we still have a little time before the snow flies.

my two boys and i are very much like you, maddysmommy. it feels much too cold when the aircon is on and we do not like it that way at all. however, we have no choice but to deal with it squarely because, we are living in my husband's quarters and he cannot sleep without the aircon on at nights. it is way too cold in the city where we reside right now as the rains keep coming almost every night at a time when the colder months are moving in. as for you, it is good that you consider it a breather that the airconditioning duct has encountered some troubles for the moment. enjoy the warmer nights then, my friend.

I tell you, my room is the hottest place in California. It is pretty cold out, in the morning and at night. But, I am sitting up under a full blast fan right now. If I turn it off, it is too hot, but then in a minute, my Asthma will start to act up and I will have to turn it off and burn up for a while.
We had 2.7 earthquake, right here in Santa Monica this morning. The weather yesterday was hot, today it was cooler. I didn't feel it, but my roommate told me when I got out of the shower. I did not believe her, until I saw it on the internet. Pretty soon though, my fan will go on the shelf and the heater will come down.

Me too, after my morning exercise and hot shower, I lay down on the couch with a warm blanket most of the day.

The nights here are dropping into the 50's and I like you, dread the cold that winter will bring...also, like you, my hubby leaves the AC on at night and has a fan blowing over the top of us all night!!
Hope all is going well with you and your family, my friend.....
