The Ants Are Back
Hard to believe that I got up this morning at seven thirty and started my day with breakfast from the Let’s Do Lunch eating plan. I tried to make a smoothie but my frozen banana half would not cooperate. I poured it into a glass and put into the fridge. I can have it tonight when the banana will be soft enough to go through the blender. The recipe did not say but maybe one should cut the banana in chunks before freezing. From now on I think I will just use plain bananas for the ice cubes and orange juice will make it cold enough. Since I could not have the suggested smoothie, I ate a huge bowl of watermelon. I love fruit so this eating plan is going to work well for me.
After breakfast I went to the grocery store and when I got home about ten thirty I was so sleepy that I had to lie down and I actually fell asleep for about fifteen minutes. Then I got up and have been fine since. I think it was driving in the bright sunshine that made me sleepy. As good an excuse as any I guess since I was not sleepy until I started driving home from the grocery store.
Just found an army marching in my kitchen, an army of ants. I was hoping that I was rid of them for this year. Just finished spraying so hopefully they will all be dead when I get up tomorrow morning. Before I realized they were there, one bit me on the elbow and it is now itching and burning like crazy. It seems that ant bites are almost more irritating that a wasp bite. Cover the wasp bite with soda and soon it stops hurting. Not so with an ant bite. At least the ants are not in my bed. Decided that I better check and thankfully the bed is ant free.
