Oh, god, chiggers or whatever comes out of the lawn after dark, I'm either allergic to them or the diabetes makes their bites more horrific than usual. But if I stay on concrete after dark, I don't end the summer with nasty wounds around my ankles.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

We used sulphur powder when I worked on the survey crew and had to clear brush. I can't remember how well it actually worked though. They don't tend to get to me too badly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ooooooooooooh!!! Those are way cool. Unfortunately the only under-cabinet space I have is taken up by the microwave and toaster oven.

Both good things to have. Did you see the hexagonal spice jar sets he or she has too? They go on the fridge. They are beautiful beautiful. So cool.
I mean, I don't need magnetic mason jars, but they are kinda awesome.

I did not need a mysterious error message followed by what may be a self-correcting message at 3:30 on a Friday before a holiday weekend when everyone is already gone.
I guess I'll be monitoring it over the weekend in case I have to come do a manual reboot. Sigh.
OH and I don't think I'm getting to the pool tonight.

I need to get a lock and the thought of stopping at the store makes me want to cry. I think I might be a little hormonal.
I'll stop at the hardware store and then make my mind up from there. I'm half afraid it's going to be miserable. It's been so long.
