I am a lucky woman!
A lot can happen in two weeks.
At least so far! Nothing is seeming to go how I want, or need it to go. One good thing…no ants inside for days. I’m kind bummed. I know, right…what? Well, a friend brought over a new ant trap, which I observed working really well outside on Saturday, but I have been waiting to find a trail so that I can try it some more…inside. But I haven’t seen any for a few days now. I should be playing the “Glad Game”, but no…I’m complaining because I know that if they are gone for the winter, they will be back in the spring. While we have all been making a valiant attempt at cleaning, we are not decorated for Halloween. Maybe I should forget cleaning and leave the cobwebs up for a little while longer. Our biggest problem is that we still seem to be sorting for more garage sale stuff, and what I really need to do is just get it out of the house and into the garage for now. I want the mess gone and the fun projects to begin. Megan keeps coming home with great ideas to try, but that takes some serious time, which I haven’t had or wrangled from my almost completely overwhelming list of things to do. I keep reminding myself “baby steps” but I’m ready to make the “one giant leap for mankind” at this house
It's my blog's 2nd anniversary!
I've got a definite gripe, some good news and a lot of gratitude going on today!
I think I need to avoid watching and waiting for Mr. Fangs to have his lunch!
As I sat at Scott’s desk, shuffling through paperwork and trying to make heads or tails of it, I realized that it had been hours since my breakfast feast of last night’s Karl Strauss’s dinner leftovers – BBQ Chix Macaroni and Cheese (yum!) – and that if I didn’t eat soon, I would be facing an additional element to my already developing headache. The thought of preparing anything would just have to wait until dinner, so I was trying to think of something small to tide me over. Then I remembered what was in my fruit drawer in my frig…a peach, a pear and a plum, the remaining pieces from a fruit box gift from a kind friend. Gathering them into my arm, I proceeded to the sink to gently wash the very ripe fruit, when much to my consternation I am confronted by small, steady stream of tiny black, quick-moving creatures that so easily seem to find the one random crumb or misdirected piece of candy long since forgotten by the giant creatures that they persecute – ants. And so I came to face to face with this small army of insects. The trail stretched across my counter, over the stove top, across the other counter and up the wall to parts unknown. Funny thing is that I could understand their invasion if I had left food out or someone had not wiped down the counters. I am perplexed as to why they were all converging to one spot. There
