We are going to be in another heat wave all of next week so I guess the schools are going to only be open in the morning.

We had a two day break from the humidity yesterday and today but it's coming back for all of next week and they can't keep the kids in school because of the heat.

If anyone wants rain, I can send it. I am mildewing. Went to Rendezvous yesterday. I warned about the point we use, surrounded by the Baraboo River. Oh no, we'll be fine. Uh huh...ended up at the fair grounds since the point is 4 feet under water! Drove the highway from town to town. Geeze! Looks like the prehistoric inland sea came back. Car auction place was a ton of cars in water. When I came back, saw them across the road higher on gravel and the big cat with forks that had moved them. The gas station near had sand piled around and the pumps were standing in two feet of water or more. My fields have water. Guess good they never GOT planted. Glad I am on a hill with the compound. Now...warning to all about skeeters. One kitten was sick. Swelled under jaw and looked like a hole from a bee sting. He got better after a couple days but some swelling and the hole. By day 5 or so I knew what it was...Bot fly. How could he not notice a fly laying an egg? Goggle it..scary thing. Nothing I could do except swab the spot with anti bacterial. He seemed to adapt. It drove me nuts. Tried to smother it so the lava would come out. Nope. Finally it was big enough, like a small grub size. It was sticking out and I pushed behind and it just popped out. Took it and put rubbing alcohol on it. Didnt hurt it. Fine..vinegar..nope. OK you WILL suffer, boiling water and watched the air bubbles rise til it died. Then fed it to a hen! Take that! In a couple days kittens neck was healing and now looks almost normal. Now the skeeters...The fly doesnt lay the egg on skin. She lays the eggs on skeeters. The skeeter bites, egg falls off on skin. Lava hatches and enters through the bite hole or a pore. They like under necks with loose skin. And if you check youtube, there are videos of them on PEOPLE! As if we didnt have enough issues with skeeters! Beware!

We had rain almost every day all summer. Some of the roads will be closed for months. Some of the schools are still closed because of mold. I hate to see how long those kids will have to go to school next June to make up these days.

And people say there is no such thing as weather changes happening. All around the globe,not just us. Crazy and disastrous weather is affecting just about everybody on our planet.
Mankind merrilly destroying mankind. Kind of a really REALLY disturbing type of cannibalism

Went in the cottage. Crud!! Edge of bed is wet, rug and floor and can see water above in sky light. So up on roof with can of plastic tar. Filled in the cracks in the tar. And I had used Flex Seal on spots. Guess what. After a year plus it has turned yellow like old plastic and you can just peel off the thin layer. So much for their great product! Guess it works for a while and if not outdoors. Another info scam.

After a week of record high temps, we are now back to a week of heavy rain, with record low temps expected, The flooding has started again and roads are closed. What a strange summer it has been. How do you go from 100 degrees to 60 degrees in one day? Some places are in the 50's this morning.

The damage from all of the rain we had this summer is estimated at 105 million dollars. I can't even imagine what North Carolina is going to cost in damages.

Have you guys had a big weather change? It is so cold in the house today that I have been wrapped in blankets all day. I didn't want to turn the heat on yet but that may change. It was so hot last week and now it is damp and in the 50's.I guess the hurricane brought the temperature drop.
