I baked banana bread two nights ago :). The sun is shining now here, but it is not very warm.
ReplyDeleteit's supposed to get cooler today and tomorrow. the weather bounces around so much.
DeleteWe are supposed to get 3 to 6 inches of snow! Peter just took Jonathan and Charlotte to the Genesee Country Museum for their second maple weekend there. The snow is supposed to start when they have to leave. I will take the others to gymnastics soon.
DeleteOh my goodness! Greg was just reading to me how cool it's supposed to get in the next few days here. He mentioned that winter doesn't want to let go. I thought winter would be over much sooner. It's just been so warm these past few days that the thought of 40 degree weather again is distressing to me (it's been 76 and 78 degrees here).
DeleteI just talked to Peter, it is really cold at the museum, but no snow so far. We have had snow here, though, but it has not lasted long. We just had another mouse run through the kitchen. Julius tried to get it, but it disappeared under the stove. We finally found out where all those carpenter ants were coming from and have been putting out poison. It seems to help. With the warmer days we were getting hundreds, very disgusting to say the least. I am not crazy about those mice, but the ants are worse. Never a dull moment here. I wonder what will come after the mouse.
Delete!!!! Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom! Those darn carpenter ants!!! I wouldn't like them !
DeleteI found two new ones in the bathtub this morning, when I wanted to take a shower. I thought we had killed them all. And we just discovered another mouse in one of the kitchen cabinets, Julius heard it too. Jonathan is setting the trap again.
Delete!! I'm sorry that it's so difficult to get rid of them! You must feel frustrated :(
DeleteJust caught a new one :). Or maybe it is the old one? Some soap has been eaten again.
Deletesoap? funny mouse!
DeleteEspecially the all fancy and natural ones . . .
