Wink Summer in Az

We are getting ready for the summer. As many of you know we live in Phoenix, Arizona. Well the summer has finally arrived.106 degrees today but we must likely to see probably over 110 or higher soon. We prepared part of the house with energy efficient drapes, paint the house roof with some special paint to reflect the sun rays.So far so good. I noticed a big difference the past few days when its been very warm outside, the house feels way cooler .

Thanks for your great ideas on how to save energy.

Talking Our project

Well at this time he's been promoted at his job to office assistant manager big jump from where we were before. The project is on hold till everything in the office gets back on track.He's been working 20 hrs. days. We haven't gave up on the project just making better money.As soon all things are back to normal we'll be back to it. I also like to add I found a dealership that sells electric cars here in Arizona. Hubby wants to build his own I want to buy one already made. With the gas prices I'm not sure if I want to wait any longer ..lol

Thank you for the correction on the thread.
