Releasing Mikoh

We released Mikoh Sunday in the late afternoon.

This is where we went to release him. They are adding trees here, and trees are not allowed to be cut down, which means Mikoh, who loves trees, won't have to worry about his tree, whichever one he happens to be in at the time, will be cut down.

Karl saying bye bye to little Mikoh. He will get bigger, but not by much.

And there he goes, bye bye Mikoh! Eat lots of snails and slugs and get bigger!

Karlitos and I on our way to the reforestation area. Trees are forbidden to be cut down here and the neighbors police the area. The only saws you ever hear over here are when people are cutting lumber to build their houses.

The area where we released Mikoh at. Karl was worried the monkeys would come get him.

Letting Mikoh out of the bag ended up in me gently dumping him out. He didn't want to come out! Then he was okay with being in the jungle again, and this is a lot bigger area for him than where he was from.

We Found a Baby Snake!

We think it's a baby anaconda, which if I remember right, isn't poisonous. Karl wants to keep him, but we are no where near being set up to keep a snake. Not yet. Hopefully soon, though. Going to release him outside in a bit, which Karl most likely will be upset about. But, he can't stay in here, lol.

Heavy Rains Last Night and It's COLD Today!!!

I think our friends in the USA sent us some icky weather! But, the rain also cause my tomato plants to sprout, and there is another container of watermelon seedlings sprouting. The bean plant made it through just fine, too. So what am I gonna do today? I've already taken in the cuffs on a pair of scrubs I have, they were too long and I got tired of cuffing them, only to have them roll out and down, and get dirty again, and again, and again.... SO I'll work on this article about black combat boots for a client, then do some sewing, play with Karl, work on an article about how to use Minecraft in a homeschool, and wash some dishes. I have to sweep in here, too, and get some things more organized. I actually have real furniture here, and now I don't know what to do with it! Oh, and I just checked my email. I got hired at Examiner.com! Here's the first part of their email to me: Dear LorriAnne, Thank you for your interest in joining the Examiner.com team! We've looked over your application and we are excited for you to take the next steps to becoming a Fort Wayne Domestic Violence Examiner. In the next 5 days, please publish your first article. SO I am going to work on that, too. Very excited! We're drinking chocolate milk to celebrate! Which, in the USA, powdered milk is all skim, here, it's whole milk! And they said it wasn't possible, so that's why they don't have whole milk in powdered form. I bet the New York politicians had something to do with that big lie!
