Heading for warmer weather :). We have had a lot of rain and thunder storms the last couple of weeks. Next couple of days temps in the 80's and by the weekend temps in the low 90's.

I'm OK and still here, house has been inspected several times, many crews of workers out yesterday. We had the police and city workers in the morning yesterday, got the gas turned back on, had a very long hot bath! Then came the fire department and they checked all the house stuff again and put a green tag on our gas to indicate all is good. Lots of houses here have sewer in basement on our block. Both houses on both sides of me and across the street have sewer backup and they stink when the wind blows. Then later in the evening we had the heath department come door to door, and some people were told to leave their house again, the threat of more sewer backup cause the city's sewer lift pumps are not all working, so sewer is still backing up in some houses. They said not to flush toilet or use the bathtub or shower, as it just was backing up into somebody else's house.... (I had the bath before I knew this).

The cranky supervisor from work was a great help, everybody from work in the flood zone gets a 50 dollar gift card to spend at the store. I think they are giving 50 to all flood victims and then donated tons of food too.

Weather is good, no cloud in sight, we don't want a big rain storm right now, sewers still not working right!

Same old drill here. 100F header for 104F.

New fish arrived today and went into QT. One of the boxes had a mashed corner and both were a bit wet. Post mistress checked the regs to see if it was legal to ship fish. But the fish are OK.

Nice hot day, people slowly returning to homes that were not flooded or that had sewer backup.

Train bridge in Calgary has collapsed, due to flood damage, inspectors missed the damage and gave the bridge the "OK"! Now tankers full of chemicals derailed on bridge, and chemicals could spill into river....

Water restrictions here due to flood, no wasting water on garden allowed. I am using dirty dish and tub water, filling jug and watering the most needy plants by hand for now ....

Been in the 90's all week, tomorrow only high 80's and then only 70's this weekend. I'm loving that!!!! The field I usually get hay off of first cutting, alfalfa grass mix (mostly grass first cutting) got rained on while they were round baling it, only got 5 bales done. So, I guess I only will be getting those 5 bales this year. We shall see. Anyhow, after being rained on 4 days since Sat., they had earlier spread it out again to dry, today raked it back up into wind rows, and hoping to bale tomorrow or Sat. Supposed to rain again on Sat., and the scattered t'storms missed us today, Woohoo!
