Moths that drink tears
Comments (11)TM, If anyone took pictures or video, I did not hear about it. The swim lessons continue on Monday so I'll ask around. Found another funny story on the IHateButterflies site. Weird Al had a concert invaded by large green moths. Sure sounds like lunas but I could not find any pictures of the event. A link to the USA Today story is at the bottom. Looks like a CNN version had the best info but it does not exist anymore. Found this blurb on a Weird Al blog: // A few nested permanently on his famous long brown locks and appeared to be eating his black pants. Showing the mark of good taste Yankovic prides himself on losing, the insects left his trademark checkered canvas shoes and flamboyant Hawaiian shirt untouched. "My band asked me if I could find a concert where would be attacked by insects," he joked with the crowd. "I said I would see what I could do." // Here is a link that might be useful: Swarm of moths rush stage at Weird Al show...See MoreJob's tears yet to flower
Comments (7)Rochester is the closest major city. And yes, 90+ F degree days are difficult for people here to take. Go to any summer event in that sort of heat and you are sure to see at least one ambulance come at some point because someone dropped over from the heat. I know that heat is baby stuff for folks in warmer climates. But we can get freezing temperatures for half the year (first frost is mid-Oct. and last frost is mid-May) plus we can have dismal grey weather with weeks of not seeing the sun. That would be just as much of a killer to warm-weather people as 90+ heat is to us. Folks that have lived here their whole lives have a hard enough time with our cold and sometimes sunless weather. Cold hardiness and not heat tolerance or low moisture needs is the biggest concern in choosing plants for my gardens. That is what has made this summer so difficult. I got heat and extended periods of little/no rain. So many established plants failed, didn't flower/fruit, or are barely limping along. They've suffered so much that I hope they get some reasonable weather this fall to help build their reserves back up because winter always kills off the marginally surviving plants here.

Comments (135)MizGG so sorry for your loss. The best advice I once got when in nursing school was there are periods of time in our lives that we need to lower our expectations. The devastating loss of your husband must have been so hard and it is expected that other things in life took a back seat. For my house- We take our shoes off in the breezeway. We keep our dogs groomed and their nails trimmed. I am a neat freak so everything gets cleaned and dusted quite often. After that it is just updating in my current house and every house I have owned. Fresh paint every few years, and replace things that show signs of wear and tear. I usually do not replace things that do not need replacing unless I have the urge. For example my kitchen cabinets are over 60 years old. We refinished them instead of replacing them because they were in freakish amazing condition and we had other things that needed our attention and money such as refinishing floors, replacing floors, ceilings, doors and garage doors and openers. My next big expense is new windows for the house because I cannot find anyone in my area competent to refinish my old windows. Then within the next 10 years I expect to replace the roof, furnace and AC as well as have the house paid off....See MoreShould I tear down this wall?
Comments (10)Well, now that I've seen the layout I have a few thoughts. My first, is I'd tear the wall down and enlarge my kitchen into that room and design an island and a hearth room or a dining area within the kitchen space. If you must have a formal dining room, I'd think about using the formal Living Room as the Dining Room. The most used rooms in a house are the kitchen and FR. I'd like to have the openness of that large sliding door to a larger area of the house. That wall makes your kitchen so narrow and it seems like it would be dark with only one window. I agree that having your foyer open right up to the kitchen might not be the optimal, but that foyer is quite large, it's not like you're walking directly into a kitchen. Also, you can take into consideration the kitchen design and make that island area more furniture like. The other thing is - how often do you come in the front door? I would do the option that gives you the ability to use the most square footage of your house. I have an older home too and a third of my house we use twice a year....See More4kids4us
