So, what's the temp of your air conditioner set at today??? [View all]

Southeastern MN gonna be warm and muggy today. Haven’t turned on the AC yet, but today??? I just might have to turn it on. Fingers crossed it’ll work, I know, should have had it checked, husband always did that, he’s gone now, so I gotta start learning all this stuff.
