Ok… one more day until Friday and I cannot be the only one (whose children are already back in school) who feels as if school has been back in for 3 weeks! I’m freaking tired!

Corby the bug-dude came today. I’ve signed up for a service… every 30 days Corby will arrive and spray down my house for bugs and assorted nasties. He also sweeps out all the cobwebs under the eaves… YIPPEE!

I like Corby!

Especially because he will do things around the house that neither my husband or I have time or the inclination to do.

That could have all sorts of twisted meanings, couldn’t it? ;o)

After finding black widows in the backyard and a skunk in the alley (Ok, Bonanza, laugh at me…) we decided it was time to bring in a professional. I’m still trying to figure out where the heck this skunk came from. We live in the middle of the city… there is a park a few blocks away but there is no wildlife there. How might a skunk find its’ way into the middle of a city within blocks of Barnes and Noble, Borders, and The Outback Steakhouse? It sprayed something a few nights ago… the smelled wafted through the house… eeewww does not begin to cover it.

Mike and I panicked worried that it might have sprayed the dog. Thank goodness it didn’t, I don’t keep a supply of tomato juice on hand. Maybe it got “Daddy 9 Finger’s” dog. That would be worth it.
