Traveling

This month has been a busy travel month. I've been up to PA, NY and now to MD for the last 3 days of my Nose Work instructors training course. Wish me luck, as there will be a test!!! It's open book so I should be ok, but sometimes those are harder than regular tests. I will find out!

I have been truly hating all the bugs in the house. I think I have mentioned this "Country living" dilemma before. I don't know WHY I didn't realize that old trees surrounding a house on over 7 acres would create a lot of bugs in the house. But I didn't. Ron and I are looking into getting new windows and sliding glass doors, I think that will help. We also had Orkin out to spray for spiders inside and out. I have seen a surge in spiders but I am hoping they will all be gone shortly. Gross. It's also stink bug season, but they don't bother me nearly as much. I don't like when they fly, but other than that they are just an annoyance. At one point I counted 22 on one of our patio doors. Sigh.

Anyways! I am off, just wanted to say hello....happy Thursday peeps!

I don't envy your bug problem. That is absolutely no fun. I used to get bit by spiders all the time. I have a lot less spiders where I am now. Hope Orkin can rid them from your home. At least winter cuts down on the numbers. Something to look forward to!
Happy almost birthday, Kdawg!!!

a friend of mine, who is a bit of a nut, says when they spray for mosquitos they are actually just dropping spiders from the plane.

Orkin will pay a repeat visit and that will help. How do the pups like the
country and do you still have Charlotte, the blood hound. We have missed
you.

Thanks for the update - glad to hear you are keeping busy. The spraying probably made some of the spiders come out of the walls, but maybe they will decrease over time, especially if you spray inside the house again.

Are your neighbors also having such massive invasions?

Don't you have screens? Our crane flies have hatched.
