I hate spring sometimes

Late saturday night I came downstairs into the kitchen and noticed about 7 or 8 ants on the walls. I had seen a few ants during the day but didn't think much of it. Then I had a flashback to last year and the ant infestation I had in my baking hutch. They were in my sugar and everything. So....I opened the cabinets above my sink and counter and sure enough....they were everywhere! I freaked out. I noticed they are coming in above my cabinets through a gap between the cabinets and ceiling. I was up until 3am sucking up ants. After $25 and a trip to Lowes...I hope the problem is under control. I hope.

I started the dreadful spring yard cleanup over the weekend. I wish I hadn't been so lazy in the fall because now I have more work. I've hauled three tarps of leaves to the woods in an effort to clean out my flower beds. I also lugged my picnic table out (by myself) and put some of my pots out. I still need to put the fountain out. I still haven't talked to my new neighbor. We said hi once over the winter, but thats it. I know she has a cat. I see it laying by the back sliding door that goes out to the deck. I know that Max (one of the neighborhood cats) knows there is a cat there because I've seen him laying on the deck and staring in door. The girls father (I assume) came and cut grass and raked the lawn a bit...there were alot of brown patches. We got mine fertalized so hopefully it will look decent. But does it matter now that Frank is gone???? He won't care what my lawn looks like since he doesn't have to cut it anymore! lol

My good friend Sabrina who lives in San Jose is in town for a few weeks to visit her family. I miss her. She says she wants to move back to Cleveland soon. I hope she does. Hopefully we can hang out a bit before she goes back. I know she wants to visit my mom as well. She always tries to see the positive side of things.

I think my mom feels a bit better today. Hopefully she will eat and do her exercises like she is supposed to because come Wednesday....chemo starts again and she will be tired.
