aside from windy is there more bad to the weather? At least it is in the 50s now.

msbelle hans't been outside for a few hours, because the windy's mostly gone.

From the Mayo Clinic's info:

The spiral-shaped bacterium that causes Lyme disease typically is carried by a genus of ticks known as Ixodes. Ixodes, which include the deer tick, live in the low bushes and tall grasses of wooded areas and are more abundant in the spring, summer and fall. Deer ticks are sometimes no bigger than the head of a pin.

In the northeastern, mid-Atlantic and Midwestern parts of the United States, Lyme disease is carried by the Ixodes scapularis tick. On the West Coast of the United States, the tick that transmits Lyme disease is Ixodes pacificus.

To contract Lyme disease, you have to be bitten by an infected deer tick. If you're bitten and the tick stays attached to your skin for approximately 48 hours, a bacterium called Borrelia burgdorferi can travel from the tick's gut to your bloodstream. These bacteria soon migrate to parts of the body where they later produce symptoms of Lyme disease.

eta... I meant to say, I had serious questions about it being removed, but it's been out of her for 11 days. If not eating and only drinking a dozen iced teas a day did this to her in the first place, I can't imagine she wouldn't be more damaged from 11 days without food and water.
