10/10 - Yellow Jack holds on

This morning, the big spider was on the floor of the living room.  I wonder if she fell down or climbed down to play with the grasshopper?  Yellow Jack decided he wanted to ride on her back.  She told him, 'Hold on!"
I am still sick today.  Yellow Jack wanted to take his temperature too, so he climbed on top of the thermometer.  Silly little jack.

10/08 - Yellow Jack exceeds the time limit

He liked finding yellow things on the way in to work, especially this yellow parking meter.
I wish there were a time limit on my morning meetings.  4 hours straight seems a bit excessive when one’s sick...

Yellow Jack thought my lentil soup was a murky swimming pool and was going to use the spoon as a catapult to sproing in there for a dip until I yelled, “Stop!” (My coworkers wondered why I was yelling at the soup.)
Going after this cold with both barrels (they call it Tom YUM for a reason):
Odd bug behavior edition:  I noticed there was a grasshopper in the house.  Of all the places to go, s/he made a beeline for the Halloween spider/spiderweb decorations on the fireplace.  Of course.  S/he seemed to take a special interest in walking on the rubber spiders, through the web (I got queasy at the thought of having to untangle one of those spindly legs), and finally landed like a bow on the big spider's head.  So pretty.  Here s/he is, being the spider's parrot?  Yarrrchirp.

11/15 - Breakfast bar bugs

Cricket and Grasshopper think blueberry breakfast bars sound yummy!  Me too.  What did you guys have for breakfast today?

The bugs are excited about all the nice green things to eat for lunch. I wish we had time to eat ouside in the sun!
