I'm so cooool

And here's why...my birthday present to myself...an air conditioner.


This is where it's situated on the wall, and below is Bella pretending she's an ornament.


A close up view. Now, I can be comfortable on the typical Queensland sultry days and warm in the freezing mornings during winter.

A belated happy birthday wish from me to you.

Down here in our Southern home we need air conditioning too. I'm glad to hear that you got the 'best' birthday present ever.

And Bella? Beautiful!!

Well Happy Belated Birthday Robyn. When was it?

I would have been in all kinds of trouble without my air conditioner this week. I'm happy to say we have a ducted system, so air conditioning ducts in every room including the bedrooms. It's heaven on those hot South Australian nights.

Happy Birthday, and all the best !
That's a very nice gift you made to yourself ! My sister in law in Italy has a similar one (at least it looks like) and it's also for both heating and cooling. We have one for the living room but on wheels and I think in 5 years we have used it twice ! Bella is a very beautiful ornament, lol !

thanks for coming by to leave comment. One of my air conditioner is going to spoil soon and was told that that brand is no longer available in the market. :( So I just continue to use it until its not working. To buy new one cost $2,000

Now you have an excuse to wear the black leather jacket indoors ;)

Glennis said...

Good for you, now you can be cool and fresh as a daisy all day long, the cats will love it too, ours lazy in front of ours getting all the cool air they can, and all the warmth in the winter, I woulddn't be without our unit now, took lots of pressuring to get it though!
Nice black cat, I have one too on my other blog, but yours has a tail!

Dear Robyn ~~ Glad to hear you had a great birthday and your present to yourself is great. I hope you enjoy it in the heat and the cold. Well done my friend. Glad you liked the joke about the two rocket scientists on the ice. Take care, Love, Merle.
