Well, none of Mary's weather hear yet, that's for sure. Said this morning on the weather report I was watching while doing my workout that daytime temps are about 14 degrees BELOW normal for this time of year. Yuck.

Friend Norma is doing Equity today, I will go Wednesday and she will go Friday for the feeder cattle sale. They are back down to 2 feeder sales/month now till fall. We had only 539 last Friday when I worked, but the wonderful states of Wisconsin and Illinois have implemented new rules (which they cannot manage to keep in effect for very long until they throw that one out and make another one that is stupider than the previous one). It will be a total PITA for all involved.......us doing the papers, those in back doing the ear tagging, and especially for the Equity office gals. I think we are all going to need a beer or 3 after the first few sales when this all gets going.

The computer program that I have to use to do the paperwork for the state is SO not user-friendly. "They" are supposed to be re-vamping it and be releasing it to a few select vet clinics to be guinea pigs for it. Alison said that she really hopes that ours will be one of them, since she has been very vocal with them about how it can be made much better for all involved. We'll see how that all goes...............

I am needing to wage a nuclear attack on the whiteflies up in the greenhouse today; guess it will be back to every 10 days again till plants can go outside. Wretched creatures................the whiteflies, not the plants............LOL
