Long Weekend In Albuquerque
It was a great weekend with John's brothers Walt and David and their families. David brought along 
( Emili and Yuri. ) Walt has Cathie and Jake, their cat, yes the cat's named after one of the Blues Brothers.
We found out( that Jet doesn't like sleeping in a bed with us. )
We all went swimming one day and Jet had a blast and everyone was either playing with him or watching him play with someone. That was pretty funny for a while, but when everyone finally realized it, some folks went off to play in the deep end for a while. It was really cool and nice in the pool despite 95+ degree heat.
When we came back the Miller moths are nearly all gone, but for one that decided my printer was a great place to hang out. Yes, extremely yucky printouts today. Also, last night, as I was reading a book before going to bed, a mouse just walked right out in front of me, and dared me. So I set out a trap and we're less a least one incautious mouse. We'll set more and make sure they're gone.
Sadly, there's also something eating my herbs, the indoor ones are covered in tiny white bugs. I think the outdoor ones are actually getting munched by rabbits, which I might not really mind all that much, other outdoor ones are getting munched by caterpillars, though, which I do mind. I am debating either catching some spiders and adding them to the mix or using a low-grade insecticide. bah.
