Anyone who checked out my webcam so far today saw me, then snow for a while, then Mike the Fish for a while. I took a few stills off the webcam.

Okay, I’m going to move the webcam in a few minutes to see if I can get Mike the Fish captured. This will involve moving my laptop and the power cords and phone line. Hmmm. Maybe I should have waited to mention anything. Aww, what the heck. Only one person has been to visit so far today anyway.

Oh, and in other geneology news, thanks to some of my mother’s relatives I can now trace back my Rocheleau and Caron forebears back to the 1600’s! One guy may have even been born in the 1500’s! His son was born in 1636, and we don’t have a birth year for the father. This is SO COOL.

Woo hoo! I have webcam again! I don’t know how often it will be running, but hey, it’s up. That’s all that matters, right?

Maybe I’ll be able to take a picture of Mike the Fish with it. I’ll try tomorrow.

GO PATS GO PATS GO PATS!

I forgot to give a Mook food update. He still only eats the same basic items, but last night I took him to the Weathervane, and he ate the fish nuggets, which he likes as long as you refer to them as chicken. I think I’m safe with this because I just point to it for the waitress so she knows what I’m doing, but as soon as he can read the word “fish” I’m in trouble.

Oh, and I also got him to eat about 1/4 of a pear because I didn’t have any apples, and I convinced him it was a lot like an apple. Yes, I’m devious. But he liked it. And it made me feel good that he ate something different, especially the fish.
