Glad you're feeling better. Have fun this weekend! Hope your DIL is doing okay.


OK, this is kind of gross and kind of embarrassing, but too funny not to share. So let me preface it with a reminder that we do live out in the country, and in an older, cheaply built home - so while we're hoping to keep the inside in somewhat better, there's really no keeping the outside completely out.

So, after stuff got stolen out of our house last week, we set up some webcams and (kind of apprehensively) went away for the weekend to a music festival (which was great). Saturday evening we're listening to a band when our phones alert that the camera by the front door detected motion. I bring up the visual ... waiting for our slow home internet to respond, then waiting for the overloaded cell network at the festival site to respond ... and finally see a roach crawling across the lens. So now we know the cameras work, and respond plenty quickly to motion ... and no one came in the house while we were gone.
