ah, a whole day for me!

Saturday, July 09, 2011

Haircuts at nine, stopped downtown to meet a fellow Sparker, ,nice lady, Betty!!! She works in an antique store there.
Back home to swim, water plants, swim, waiting for chicken Cordon Bleu`, baked potatoes, creamed corn for dinner.
Cleaned and sanitized entire countertop area, rearranged more crocks, stored more stuff in new cabinets. So this is what it is like to have time,even one day, to do whatever you want,,
bill paying is after dinner.. arrrgggghhhhh

Death in our kitchen,condo in red maple tree..

Friday, July 08, 2011

NObody messes with me when I get angry: No more ants!! After I got trigger happy with that battery operated Raid Barrier gun, (inside and out) for some reason, two unlucky survivors came staggering out on my backsplash and out came the GIANT THUMB to seal their doom! I also killed two carpenter ants in the midst of all this,, WTH is going on? We have not been able to put anything on my new countertops for a month,,


We made a trek to the post office to mail special delivery package to Veterans Affairs for mom,, came home and found Kristy's handmade two-door bird condo, fell to the ground. We were so hot and thirsty, but I knew some birds were homeless and needed that shelter. Kristy and her dad built that house when she was just little..
Up on the ladder I went, we got the wire stripper out, cut some heavy duty clothesline used for our pool cover and got that condo back up in my huge red maple tree again!! I think I should charge rent for that thing,, my maple tree is worth thousands of dollars!!!

I would sure love to see a picture of that bird house. We ahve 2 hanging bird houses on our patio. I always ahve robert fill it with wild burd seed. On the other side of the dek is a Maple tree forest. I love them to pieces. the squirrels and birds alike. When i leave this place I will sure miss the shade from those trees. It keeps it cool indoors. Report Inappropriate Comment

Anybody want some ants? What next???? I was nice and only used Terro for a couple weeks, but no more Mrs. Nice Guy... I brought out the big guns: raid Barrier gun spray!! After smooshing about a gazillion of them on my new kitchen counters, I decided it was time for "Insecticide" They could commit suicide by running from under cover of my subway tile and windowsill!!
Lots more paperwork for VA and bills..

Someone on one of my teams used cornmeal around an ant bed. The ants can't digest it, and they die. She also uses it in the house. We are going to try it. Kay Report Inappropriate Comment
