Some of you may remember a while back that I got my AC replaced. The thing hadn't worked for several years, and I finally decided to bite the proverbial bullet and get a new one with my tax refund. So I did. It worked GREAT for a few weeks - during the worst of the heatwave, fortunately. Unfortunately it has stopped working.
Now, ordinarily this kind of stress, discovered on a Friday Night would have destroyed my whole weekend, buried me in insomnia from the constant mind-game of "what if it needs replacing again - I can't afford this (duh - warranty, your stupid git!!)- what if it needs replacing again! - I can't afford this - " again and again ad-insomniaeum. <- Yes, I made that word up. Deal with it.
Anyhow.
I've been trying to deal with anger management via this book that Lea sent me that I absolutely find utterly bollocks, because it has this attitude like "what? you're a heroin addict? why.. all you have to do is QUIT" Like its that easy. As if it were like eating toast. Easy to quit eating toast - don't cook the bread!!
Anyhow - despite the fact that the book is bollocks, I've been trying to redirect my thoughts every time I catch myself in the fits of circular thinking or adrenaline-enhanced rage or kvetching about unalterable circumstances. I managed to make it thru the weekend with considerably less episodes than I'd anticipated, and I made the phone call this morning to the guy who installed my AC and he's going to look at it sometime this afternoon.
It had BETTER be warranty.
Oh - and my insurance company sends out the most incomprehensible EOB's I've ever had the misfortune to try and interpret.
Just sayin'
553 days.
It's only been a few months, it should be covered under warranty. Yeah, why get worked up, deal with it as you say.
ReplyDeleteAbout ten years ago I took an emotional healing course in Montana, the man was really good and it helped me a lot. I talked about it in one of my old posts but don't recall which one of course, too many leaks in my head. LOL
Have a great day, hugs.

ReplyDeleteI'm convinced they do that on purpose. Most people just throw up their hands and pay, that way.
