The heat also does something for the black flies...or is it a country thing? Maybe it is the cowpies 'round here, I don't know but my house is suddenly inundated with black flies and they bite. The children woke this morning with little red bites and red eyes from shooing flies during the night. I felt so bad! Tonight we will run the fans on high and it will keep them from landing.
Is that enough complaining? Like you want to hear it...but I feel better ;)
We leave for our church campout in 4 days. I wonder how many countdowns are posted in homes of church families? Ours has been going for a few days already, put up out of necessity for Mamma's sanity. "How many day's until the campout?" "Are we leaving tomorrow?" "I hope Henry has his bike packed" "Huckleberry pancakes!" "Can we go fishing?" "What time of the day are we leaving?" "I get the top bunk!" "How are we gonna fit in the trailer this year?" "Are we going to leave on TIME?" "Can we bring the goat?(me)" "When are the church Olympics?"
Coming up...pictures of a large family slip-n-slide & G-pa moved in!

i can understand the misery of 100 degrees! BUT we have AC! I have been keeping it at 74 in the house. So i am the whimp now! I cant imagine trying to sleep in that state! I will say a pray for relief and a cool breeze! Cynthia
Isn't just terrible? We spent WAY too much on a portable AC unit that is only strong enough to keep our bedroom at about 78. I had to practically fight tooth and nail to get it too! It was a madhouse at the store.
But at least we can all get in there and sleep. For the rest of the day we wilt. Literally. I don't know if I've ever described myself as wilting, but I feel as limp and lifeless as my poor hanging baskets.
We also leave to go camping this weekend. Even though the temps won't be much better, we'll have easier water access and it'll seem more manageable!
