That's why we have never had some things before. My daughter had those fake lady bugs before when she lived in town. They would get in the house at times and she would swat and spray. someone told to keep a fan running toward her doors when they were bad. ?? I think the ants are bad because of the rains. I do feel blessed that it wasn't those dreaded carpenter ants.Blessings, xoxo, SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829885494251858318.post-21975869040592941302016-04-23T05:05:48.240-07:002016-04-23T05:05:48.240-07:00Oh sweet Blondie girl, you are just human.

But I told him today it looks better once it was rained down. LOL It is nothing I would have wanted. I think sprinkling a bit of dirt or sand over grass seed help hold ...usually birds will eat it. Dang that was expensive seed too. Don't worry about arguing with the family, you are a great cook and they are going to be hungry some time. LOL. We can't always be Pollyanna, can we? Two of my sisters can take the shine off my day at times. :) In my book, you are still a jolly good person. Bless your heart, xoxo, Susie<br />p.s. Get those tests done and over with.

I have always warned my children, grandkids and even Ted, about dropping crumbs or leaving anything food wise lying around. It's a no-no in my house. I am going to look for that tooth paste brand. I am going to CVS today. Thank you for that hint. Blessings to you and John, hope you are doing well. xoxo, SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829885494251858318.post-8207767851772269562016-04-22T21:57:19.344-07:002016-04-22T21:57:19.344-07:00Susie, it sure sounds like a full week.

I started to notice the carpenter ants in all different areas of my house. I get ant trap as I have the dogs and a bird and a little bit of inhalation of the professional poison is deadly for them. The traps truly work. And I keep poison hidden for the mice that aways make it in my home...not the kitchen, weird places like my closets and the family room! They paid a visit today. I have the mammogram and bone density prescriptions and I'm putting them off. Gulp.<br /><br />I spread grass seed (very expensive) all over my bare spots (a whole bag-$66). I knew it was going to rain but I didn't think it would puddle and wash away the seed. It did. So disgusted. Arguments with hubby and both daughters. I have a headache and I'm sick to my stomach.<br /><br />So, I've now spoiled your idea that I'm a jolly good person!<br /><br />Hope next week is better for both of us.<br /><br />Jane Blondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829885494251858318.post-63722689591711681872016-04-22T18:45:34.353-07:002016-04-22T18:45:34.353-07:00Just seeing a few ants drives me nuts!

It works very well for me - better than Sensodyne. I'm not crazy for the taste but it helps the pain. You have had quite a week. I hope you can rest and do something pleasant this weekend.
