I got kicked out of the house this morning; the electrician showed up and they told me to "Leave! Now!" Snots, both of them. They're going to wire through the trench from the house to the shed for electricity, TV cable, and ethernet cable. So tonight, when I get home, we should have electricity in the shed. Should. We had a heckuva t-storm this morning, so the trench is basically mud. That's supposed to be the only rain for today.
We are having a horrid ant problem in the kitchen; these are the tiny little ants and we can't figure out where they're coming from. Rick has sprayed Home Defense around the outside of the house. We looked and looked and tried to follow the trail, but we haven't a clue. We clean with Pine Sol and water, we've used Zevo because it's supposed to be safe for pets. Nothing is working. We need to find that nest. I told Rick I'm not baking anything til the ants are gone. No amount of counter cleaning will make me think it's safe to bake. Ick.

- Breakfast for the kids, emptied the dishwasher, scooped the boxes (Rick was in the basement, checking for ant nests in the ceiling at the walls), walked two miles, and got ready for work. On the way into work this morning, a mama doe crossed the road right in front of me, followed by her baby fawn, still in spots. Clarence and I stopped and let them cross, waited until I was sure there weren't any more, and then continued on our way.
- We still didn't go for groceries yet. On Monday, neither of us felt like dealing with groceries. When I got home yesterday, it was pouring rain and we decided we weren't going out in the mess. It was thundering and pouring and.....nope, nope, nope. Maybe tonight.
- I have to do three small loads of laundry tonight (and I'll have to do them because Rick will be busy today)
- Trash night tonight
