Ah such fun - talk of weather... ok I can join in. But remember I live in the PNW which is suppose to be mild temps. We get a few days in the 80's not weeks of it. So today we are jumping up to 87°f/30.5°C. Way to warm for me. But tomorrow it is suppose to rain and we are having thunder storms. My cats will love that (not!). So it should drop all the way down to about 81°F/27°C. But the humidity will be terrible. Usually around 20 to 30% this time of year, it's suppose to be about 70%, which is going to be miserable. Then temps are suppose to be going up for at least the next 5 or so days. I moved away from LA in hopes of getting away from this misery.... only compensation - it's worse in So. California. We still have some of the more milder temps and weather then most of the country.
My question is this - is this what we will be expecting for now on..... hotter and worse summers and colder and worse winters! If so YUK!
So now I have to go figure out my sprinkler system - ended up costing me about $350 to fix two broken pipes - both caused by the former owner and her shovel! It works now but something I did has caused it to come on twice today so far. Need to recheck the programming on that damn computer. Once every other day is quite sufficient!

But here's the kicker. I could sue the former owner because she lied. She signed papers saying there wasn't any sprinkler system. Sorry - not only was there one but it has a computer attached. So she knew it existed but was broken (she watered using a hose with an attached sprinkler according to the neighbors).... but she was the one that broke it with her shovel going through the pipes in 2 places! But to sue her - she lives in Arizona - would be more costly because I need an attorney to do it. I could get the attorney fees back if I win, but she is about 10 or so years older then me and probably doesn't have much money..... so I guess I'm stuck. But I intend to contact her real estate agent and send him a scathing email saying I don't like being lied to, etc. Probably not worth the effort but it might make me feel better!
