If only I had cockroaches...
I’m kind of at a
loss on what to write for this post. I’ve been away so long and can’t think of
anything interesting to say. Not one word. Not one idea. When I’m like this
about writing posts, words from a friend comes to my mind.
“If you saw a cockroach walking
across the floor, you would write about it.”
I have no
cockroaches in my house.
You might consider
that a blessing, but what do I write?
About Millie? She’s
definitely into everything. Silly and sweet. Ornery and a menace. She met her three collie cousins last week and well she didn’t get it—that she’s a dog, too. I
think my sister felt sorry for her, but Millie needs to be with other dogs even
if they are BIG collies who are so sweet and good and want to be her family.
She tried to ignore
them.
After a long
vacation, I went back to work. Nothing new there. I’ve done this every year for
twenty-five years. We have tons of new employees this year. The dynamics of a school
district. Revolving door, sometimes.
I could talk about trying
all summer to get new flooring installed, because I had a wall blown out, but
was told “Not so fast”, by Lowes. You will “probably” need new floor joists and
all floors need to be ripped out and replaced with new plywood, to create flat
floors, they said.
Okay. I need to get a contractor. Need to get
the work done. Oh and save more money. Right now, I have duct tape, taped between the gap of the two floorings to prevent falls, I hope. It looks great. Not.
If only I had a
cockroach to write about.
If you’ve not been
there, I have a new post at The Ruralhood. It’s a foul story, okay fowl.
That's all I have, folks.

Yay for a cockroach free zone.
Sigh on the flooring front.
Don't wish you had cockroaches though.
Never wish for cockroaches, even in a joke. To me they are the most revolting of creatures. Having live in NC for 12 years they were a constant battle. I cannot stand the things.
Drop by my blog. Don't watch the movie trailer -- it has cockroaches! :-)
I have a new kitten, Midnight, and he is malevolent little critter when he has been left alone -- too much energy. I have heard of climbing the walls, but he literally does it!
big hugs!
