Wow.

Pathetic. Sad. Embarrassing. What do all these words have in common? Adjectives that could be used to describe my blog, that's what! Oh well, I have neglected my blog. So what? That doesn't mean I have been hiding in my room, doing nothing. Sometimes you just have to "take a break" so to speak. And so take a break I did. I'll post some pictures soon, I promise. Because let's be honest, a blog post without pictures is hardly a blog post at all. No one wants to read my rants and raves. Probably no one wants to see my pictures with commentary either though, which leads me back to the reason for a "break."

In all actuality, you should be grateful that I don't have pictures of some things though. Like what??

1. The ants that decided to invade my kitchen. I think its under control now though. I HOPE so at least.

2. The squirrel that I chased off of my deck yesterday. He apparently managed to chew through the garbage bag on the deck, and proceeded to pull out a ziplock baggie of something that he found tasty enough to rip into and eat while I watched him. Gross. Those dang garbage can lids just keep disappearing. Someone told me if you spray ammonia on your trash, the squirrels will stay away. I think a trip to Target is in order!

3. The chipmunk "trap" that my co-worker told me about at his house. If I see one of those at my house, look out little chipmunks. Don't mess with me. I know your weakness and am not afraid to exploit it.

One day I'll download some pictures and post something a little more entertaining. Hopefully not rodent-related.

Ughh! Ants are such a pain! Also, squirrels and chipmunks are cute from far, but far from cute! Also, I for one have missed hearing about your adventurous life!

I feel your pain on the ants problem. We had a similar problem and after spending a couple of days tracking them to see where exactly they were coming from, we got to work. We set out a few ant traps and sprayed some pretty potent ant killer outside and by the next day . . . no more ants!!!
