See, there’s a benefit to everything. Still trying to find how to apply that to mosquitoes, though.

Somebody let me know if any use for mosquitoes turns up. Doubtful. And then there’s lice, and those horrid ants that I have to chase out of the house every Spring. I am suspicious of anything of an insect or spider sort.
 
Yesterday evening I was in the garden and could hear a squeaking,l held the kitten still so we could hear where it was coming from…the garden bed.P(name removed by moderator)ointed the noise and dug and there was a little burrowing frog 🙂 I think the ones in my are just stay burrowed for short periods,but in dry parts of Australia burrowing frogs stay buried for months, coming out when it finally rains.
 
Australia has the weirdest living things I ever heard of. I’d be afraid to go out of my house, but then you have scary beings IN the house. You all must be very brave.
 
But you’ve got rattlesnakes and brown recluse! 😬
And tornados and snow and crime and blah blah blah

I was at the Adelaide Cathedral today and the statues aren’t covered. I think they do it for all of Holy Week. My guess is after Palm Sunday.
 
It must be allowed to vary,I really don’t know.

Are you getting rain over there? Seems we are having more than predicted,a rumble of thunder and big drops.
It was soo humid today!
 
Oh ,yeah…I did too (cooties?)
Poison Ivy
Chiggers…
Too much good food…

Yes, I’m fairly sure there are no specific directives on the covering of statues. It’s been interesting sharing what happens in our own parishes and cathedrals.

Rain? We’ve had 7mm this year (a sqillionth of an inch) but fortunately it’s at least been cool for the last couple of weeks.
 
Oh that’s not nice :confused: I first heard of poison ivy via hearing my brothers singing Camp Granada (?)

“Squillionth” – please, dear Eddy Boy, when using fabricated words to suit your needs, do spell them correctly.

Sheesh, will I never be able to put down my red teacher’s pen? :roll_eyes:
 
My goodness. How can you measure things to a skillionth of a willometer if you can’t spell!
 
We used to play a game called Cootie. There was a plastic body and then everyone competed to see who could get their’s completed first, adding each leg, eye, antenna, and a kind of spiraled up piece for the mouth. This was pre-video game era.
 
I had the Cootie game.

I think that I received it as a birthday gift one year when I was really young.

My family played it with me. I can remember sitting around our kitchen table and playing it.
