Tuesday Ramble

Good morning all.  The heat and humidity has returned to Brooklyn.  Thank goodness for a cool center to seek shelter in.  I do have AC at home, but spending the day in the center not only provides me with socialization, but also saves me money on my electric bill.  And lunch?  Oh my.  Take a look at yesterday's lunch.

Beef goulash, egg noodles, mixed vegetables, bread and butter, and grapes.  Brought half of it home for dinner. 

Had an invasion of flying ants the other night, and of all places, in my bedroom.  There were so many of them, and our ceiling is so high it is hard to reach them.  Hubby was batting them with a towel as they flew down.  Awful.  I had a hard time sleeping.  Then, just as quick as the arrived, they disappeared.  You will never guess where hubby found them the next day....in one of his hats.  He just tossed the whole thing out the back window.

Meanwhile, I did buy a spray just in case.  We've never really had a bug problem.  6 years and no roaches because I allow the exterminator in every month.  Some tenants won't open the door for him even though it is a free service.  Once in awhile I have seen ants on the ground and sprinkled peppermint essential oil around.  That sends them running.  But, flying ants?  And 12 foot ceilings?  How do you deal with that?  I realized last night that I have NOTHING to use against bugs.   

Other than that, not much going on.  My carpal tunnel and sinuses are feeling a lot better now.  Just have to stop playing the game on my phone so much.  Magicton Mansion. I've passed 1,300 levels and less than two months.  Is it any wonder why my carpal tunnel acted up?  Backing off now.  Maybe a game or two a day, but no more than that.

Have a wonderful day.  Stay cool and hydrated if you're in this heat.
