Weekend

February 13, 2009

I hate that it is going to cool down for the weekend. Knowing that the weekend would not be as nice has made me antsy all week to just be outside. I usually can’t stand the month of February, but this year it has been quite bearable. We have the usual assortment of birthday parties [...]

I actually had a good number of comments and emails in regards to my post on moths. I don’t mind the moths swarming my lantana, but they keep flying into my house as well. That is the part that I don’t like. Anyone know what kind of moth this is? More pictures if you click [...]
