Ants
While I was gone my biggest fear was not that the house would burn down or that someone would rob the house or that there would be some natural disaster like; forest fire, hurricane , or flood. I was worried about ants. I really do not like ants.
Well, they waited for me to return to do battle. I have the bug guys coming tomorrow, but for right now It is me and the boys against them, THE ANTS! You scoff, but this is a battle of wits, because these are carpenter ants, the worst. They are in the house some where and all I can do is run around the house and strategically spray bleach and vinegar where I think they may show up and everywhere they show themselves.
I cleaned pretty good before I left for are trip. The ants found a place that I didn't get to. Claire had, at one time, in the near past{does that make sense} hid in a cubby and ate a sucker, then left a sticky mess just perfect for ants. They found it. These ants are on it.
I will prevail. Beware ants . I am crazy with vinegar just ask my kids.

Hey Vinegar Mom, you go! You come by that ant feeling naturally. Do you remember me fighting the ants every spring in St. Louis? They had a path across the ceiling that they considered their own private right of way.
