So we are now on day number two of waiting for the AC guy to come and grace us with his presence. The upstairs unit is on the fritz. It is reading 6 degrees higher than what it is set at so yeah, definitely issues there. After waiting all day yesterday I began to make dinner and I noticed over in the breakfast room we were blessed with the presence of uninvited house guests. They have stopped by every year in every house we have owned. I swear they single me out just so they can watch me go crazy! Well not this time ya darn ants! I kept my cool and just made sure to clean up every teeny tiny crumb that there was on the floor while smooshing each and every one of them with a vengeance. Such a bad hostess I know but I just could not resist. I then proceeded to vacuum out the seat cushions on the chairs and coach. Yeah, that was a little bit much but trust me well worth the peace of mind. They had not been cleaned out in oh say a year and in our last house the darn things went from the dining room all the way to the living room couch looking for a snack. I did not even know we had them till Littliest came in and told me he had ants on him. Mind you he was only two at the time. I was hysterical seeing as we had only been in our home a week. You had never seen such a crazy lady but I digress. I kept my cool this time around and am under a vigilant watch today seeing as we are again waiting for the AC guy to come sometime between 12-4 like yesterday. Monday we will be playing the waiting game for the pest team to come and spray . I found the darn pests making their way in from outside the breakfast room door to the patio. I sprayed and everything yesterday but apparently there are a few that did not get the memo to move on.
With my high hopes dashed of a trip to HomeGoods which I have not been to in 3 weeks and am going thru with drawl along with bribery of popcorn and a slushie at Target afterwards I sat and pondered what to do. Then it came to me. There was a project sitting on the dining room table for like a month and half now. It was the perfect keep me busy so I do not have thoughts of pulling my hair out while I wait project.
Okay now off to see what else I can busy myself with and to see just how hot it is upstairs. Wanna place any bets!?:) Hope your day is going well and thanx for stopping by!
What craziness!! I would die without AC. And the ants, oh my!!
ReplyDeleteIf it gets too bad send those boys out here to help in the garden : )
HA!!
I love the wreath. I've been wanting to redo my front porch.
Our A/C is acting up too. Yuck. It looks like we will have to get a whole new system. Ouch.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Your Baton Rouge doors were beautiful. I love double doors.
ReplyDeleteYour wreath re-do looks great. I don't know how you could improve upon it except maybe with 4th of July coming up you could insert a couple of small flags then change little things our seasonally like your bunny for spring and find a cute fall thing to stick in there.
