Random stuff, still no pictures.
I feel a little less virus-doomed today. SAM sleeping through the night for three out of the past four nights helped! :) Also, I never put him in a diaper yesterday, and he was dry all day!
Yesterday I noticed the grackles picking up some bread I'd put out for them and dipping it into the birdbath before eating it. :)
The other evening we were hanging out in the backyard for quite a while, with SAM running around. When we were going inside, I noticed a brown lump out in the yard, and when I went closer I saw that it was the rabbit acting like it was hidden in the middle of the grass. We never noticed it. :) I'm not sure if it was the mother, or one of the mostly-grown-up babies. It seemed a little scrawny to be the mom, but it's hard to tell.
SAM did really well when we were at Eclipse. (Thanks wayferny and ikara_fox!) He woke them up far too early the second night, but that's nothing he hasn't done to me before, without the excitement of having DAT around. *rolls eyes* But anyway, since almost every day he asks to go back, I don't think he was traumatized. :)
I may have said this already... But now that we have awesome recycling that takes all plastics, and are putting organic stuff in the compost pile, we have very little trash! This is important, since I still haven't gotten the hang of putting the trash can on the curb before pick-up day.
Last night we closed the windows and started up the air conditioning. I really enjoyed having the house opened up for so long. It was like living outside (plus our gas bill last month was $8). :) When we got back from the event, I couldn't figure out why the house felt weird, until I realized that all the windows were closed so the air wasn't moving. It hasn't been quite so nice for hoshiadam's allergies, poor thing... but next month he has an appointment for allergy drops.
