Today I was in rush mode and it took some ants to stop me in my tracks. Yep, some ants. I had to take a time out and deal with ANTS!
I have come to believe that the great state of Georgia was built on a "Ant Hill". This time of year they go crazy. I have tried to be nice and have asked them to stay out of my house. Today that method proved to be not very effective. So, with spray in hand and my vacuum cleaner I went after those little creatures. At the end of my crazed killing spree, I felt like I had just been to battle and then was required to climb the highest mountain and post my flag on the top. I was so tired. Yet, I was victorious.
That may not seem like a lot but to me it was a great achievement. The only problem is that once I shut them out in one place they get smart and find another way to enter my home. So, I celebrate my victory today and will rest so I will be prepared for tomorrow's battle!

Jill as I'm typing I am watching 2 or 3 of them scurry across my keyboard. I have just come to accept that ants are part of my live now. I like them better than the flies that the cows bring with them. With all the rain lately we have had a lot more ants here. But you need to be careful because I think GA has those nasty Fire Ants they are BAD!!!! my mom was bitten when we lived in Texas and ended up in the ER. So you GO Girl and battle those little critters.
They have invaded us twice now. Good lesson for the kds to kee things picked up and to not eat anywhere but the ktchen table! We did finally find the big ant hill and we dumped lots of ant power.
I like ants in small or sinle groups as the scorpons eat them and then they will not come inside our house to feast:)
I am glad to know I am not the only one who has this problem...:)
