Now you know why I don't leave my apartment in the summer. I buy
groceries once a month, and buy everything else online, and it gets
shipped to my door, and most of my bills get paid online also. Oh and
by the way, all the monsoons bring to Coolidge is dust storms laced
with Lightning, brush fires and once in a great while a drop or two of
rain. in August you can literally fry an egg on the sidewalk. Today I
looked out the window and couldn't see the house across the street
(Dust Storm). Glad I got a newly refurbished central Air unit, although
the electric bill this month was $82.00. Guess I won't be getting that
second Hard drive until winter.
