Dryer weather is coming... (I think) to your area.
I am now irrigating my garden again and no rain is expected till Sunday, and temps are almost 90 now.
Tell your daughter that things are not rosy at most school systems across the country.
Here in Delaware, ALL teachers received a 2.8% pay cut. Daughter wasn’t happy about it, but it beats being laid off.

Hey, why are you complaining? You live in the official ‘Freest State’ in the Nation... (at least that is what the report I read said...)
Cheer up - things are going to get worse...
Even the U.N. is complaining about the bad situation world-wide.
U.N. Head: World Faces Era of Crisis ‘Like No Other’
DUBLIN — The United Nations is struggling to keep its peacekeeping missions staffed and supplied as the world endures an unprecedented combination of crises, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Tuesday as he opened a two-day visit to Ireland.
“We are living through an era like no other. There are multiple crises: a food crisis, fuel crisis, flu crisis and financial crisis,” Ban told an invited audience at the Dublin Castle conference center in between meetings with the president and prime minister of Ireland.
“Each is a crisis we have not seen for many years, even generations. But this time they are hitting the world all at once. We have never seen any era when we have been hit by all these multiple crises at the one time,” Ban said.
‘Don’t worry, be happy...’ ‘Every things gonna be all right.’
My father always told me it was good to be like a duck...
Calm and serene above the waterline but paddling like heck out of sight below the waterline.
Notice many places from Ca in your list. Can't say I feel sorry for their financial crisis. My grand-neice from Ca was visiting last summer. When I dared to mention illegal immigrants, she flew to their defense, saying Ca needed their cheap labor. Then proceeded to tell about the cheap projects they had negotiated under the table. Just oblivious to the drain on their system from the welfare and perks from these illegals. I couldn't believe my ears. This from an intelligent woman!! Not surprisingly, she also hailed Obama's election as a MOMENTOUS occasion.
