Welcome to the Country Home.
That’s the weather here. It’s not even the middle of the day yet and it’s already SO hot outside. If I had the bod… I’d be running around in a bikini, it’s that hot. It’s also ridiculously flooded. Driving down here, I had to drive through some water. Now let me tell you, that’s not always a good idea. Thank goodness I was in the truck. I mean, it’s really hard to describe how hot it is. One of my nephews created 2 albums on facebook from where he lives down here and basically, you find highways and roads, and they’ve turned into lakes. With really fast moving water. You cannot visualize the amount of water down through here and how many people they’ve had to evacuate. We’re so lucky we live on a hill or this would be so flooded. The sump pump nearly broke the other night. My dad had to hook it up to an inverter that he keeps in the truck just to keep the basement from flooding. It was so bad. It’s already 83 here. We don’t have air conditioning mind you… so it’s crazy. Fans running. Yet I’m wearing jeans… go figure. I’m too lazy to shave my legs till later. But, I should. Because it really is skirt and dress time. Thank goodness I brought my dress and skirts. But until then it’s jeans for me. I wore sweats last night and it was nice, but when I went to bed I was so hot. Oh my goodness. My dad has this attic fan but all the bugs were getting into my room from the screens so I had to shut the windows and just put my fan on full blast. I had no choice. I hope the predicted rain today cools things off. On the other hand, we DO NOT need more rain. I feel so bad for the people who are flooded out. There are countless houses. Ughh. I should go. I need to go paint some moulding for my room that never got done…
I will talk to you all sometime soon.
