It’s Raining Again

Now I generally love the rain. However, when it rained Wednesday night (Elsa came through town 🌧) the wind that accompanied it also knocked over my poor little starter tree in the front yard. The only one in the neighborhood I might add 🙄. My neighbor, who was kind enough to help me stake it, said I should submit a claim for hurricane damage 😆😆. As it was the only one to topple over, I was very tempted.

Poor defenseless tree

The storm also seemed to drive another horde of ants into my house, that managed to circumvent the floor barrier that was sprayed by opting to pore out of an electrical outlet in my kitchen. They then proceeded to attack a brand-new loaf of bread 🤬. An hour and two damn ant bites later, I had most of them vacuumed up, but I’ve spent the better part of the day watching for another onslaught and sucking up the strays/scout ants that pop up. So now that it’s raining again, I’m worried about another invasion. And I might lose my ever-loving mind if that happens.

And if the tree and the ants weren’t enough, my tire had a screw in it 🤦‍♀️. Thankfully, it was in a place that only required a patch 😮‍💨. I know it doesn’t have anything to do with the rain, but hopefully it completes the circle of three so that I can have a pleasant weekend, because this shit is exhausting 💤.

Now I have to find a spot where my dog can sit nearby as she doesn’t like the rain. Although I should add, that she doesn’t like the rain when she is inside. Take her out to do her business in it and she will just stand there letting it hit her until she feels compelled to complete the task at hand, soaking us both 😡.

Anyone want to house swap with me for a few days? Ants included for free 😜.

Have an amazing weekend my lovelies – I know I’m going to try to 😁!
