Battle with the Ants

I have spent the whole week celebrating my birthday and I am not done yet. 

I have been fighting with the big black ants!!!   Gary thinks I am getting obsessive about it, but the Pest control cannot come until Mon.  Just when I think I have them all, another shows up.  I have cleared the countertop of everything so I can get a good hit at them.   GRRRR.

We visited Jake and Olivia's classroom today at Franklin.  It was the book fair.  Jake is very shy in school.  Not much has changed since Maggie and Jane were there and all the teachers remembered them.  I thought Mrs. Keppy was kind of short with the children.   Maybe it is a good thing this is her last year.  Mrs. Edwards is still the music teacher and she is really good with the kids.   

The Golden girls (my classmates) had lunch today at Lavender Crest Winery.  We had a meeting discussing our plans for our 55th class reunion next year.     We decided not to meet their because they charge $250 rental and then we would have to share the room.  Most are not in to the loud music any more. 

I started my new book "Loving Frank".  I need to get something on my goodread site. 

Chris will be here June 4th and that will be my goal to have the porch done....I hope the ants are gone. 

It is after 10 p.m. 

Until Later,

I had ants in my room a week or so ago - I just sprayed the window thoroughly with insect spray and they were gone. I'm sure you could do that too if you knew where they were getting in, but if not, it's best to have the pest guy do it. Maybe he can do something about those wasps you always have in the summer too...

Also, I can't believe all my old teachers remember me...I was so sure I was forgettable. Oh well.
