RV Blog--Life in a Box. This just ain't 'camping' any more.... Monday, November 14, 2005: Well, that was fun! Jean flew in for the weekend and we had a great visit! Ate a lot, vegged a lot, caught her up on some movies, and shopped for fleas.... And then dropped her off at the airport...:( And before that, Marie called and caught me up on all her goings-ons. It's hard to keep up with all their buying and selling of houses and such, but I managed to keep track! :) And now, hubby is having a 'clear liquids' day, along with that wonderful, nasty fizzy stuff and 4 evil little pills.... Tomorrow we get to go to Tampa for the ever-popular colonoscopy. Now I can go back to stashing my goodies away in all the cubbyholes--just as soon as those jerks from Terminex have been here again. I was so displeased that I emailed Headquarters, after the manager here told me to wipe off my countertops and he'd be here eventually. Funny how they had someone here within 24 hours of my initial call--and collected my $150. But when I called for the second installment, which I needed desperately before Jean got here, I got nothin'.... I swear to you that I could have dealt with my unwanted visitors more thoroughly myself with a can of Raid and a couple of bombs than Terminex did with all their mysteries sprays and worthless little traps! This morning I lifted the lid on my coffee filter storage container and there sat a big brown bug and 2 very young ones. To say that I was pissed is to put it mildly! They ain't heard the last of ME! I've learned a thing or 2 to add to my normal passive/aggressive revenge pattern.... :) I can do "in your face" confrontations, too! LOL! Pest update: The manager brought a flunky, whom he sent in first, and our home has been very thoroughly de-pested. Later there was a phonecall from the head office wanting to know if the work had been done.... We'll see what happens now.... Are ya'll tired of hearing about Florida's State Pest, yet????
