weather today

August 11, 2008

I'll have to check out the news later and see if this is a record

low day for temp in Ks in August.

It's hard to believe but today in my work truck the temp has been

70 last week this time of day the temp was between 100 and 112. We

had a storm front move through Ks .

It sure was nice this weekend. We are working on our other house

without the air conditioning on. I am getting ready to move into it by myself.

We had stored a bunch of stuff from his dads house a few weeks ago,

even though I told him I didn't want to put his dad's stuff there. I

know his dad had to sell his extra house in order to get things where

they need to be for mom to go on to medicare at the rest home. They

have to get rid of a certain amount of assets. But we knew when we

moved the stuff into my house that with our bankruptsy coming up that

we might have to move into it ourselves. With the high temp and

humidity the last couple of weeks and husband forgetting to go back

up and clear out water in fridge after the ice melted and some of the

stuff from his dads having mold on the boxes from a roof leak at

their place. Well before I can move in we not only have to remove all

his dads things to a storage unit, but I am having to clorox down the

walls, ceilings and cubboards and doors. We had mold/ mildew starting

up on the surfaces. Thank goodness I caught it early and it hasn't

penetrated into the finishes on the doors etc. It's just a pain in

the butt to have to do all that extra work. The house sat empty with

no problems for two years and just 3 weeks of his dads stuff and

hubby not doing something I reminded him 3 different times when he

was going up there to mow and I have a mess to deal with.

In some ways I can't wait to move on my own for a while.
