Really?

I'll have to look them up but I tell ya, they won't be as much fun as chasing them down with a butterfly net and stomping them into goo.

I just came in from hilling up potatoes. The ground was just marginally dry enough to get the job done and more rain forecast for tonight and tomorrow then again on Thursday.

We are still waiting for it to dry out long enough for us to get that cursed lagoon filled in the rest of the way. Maybe next week?

@CapricornFarm. I have one of those bug zapper badminton rackets. They work pretty good also, better if you put batteries in them.

Up to 23 now. Arrogant little so and so's actually stare at me if I miss them once with the net.

My husband broke that bug zapper thing the first time he used it!

I seem to be slowly improving, and getting over this cold type bug I have. I'm still congested, but not as bad as before. One thing I an attest to: Sambucol Black Elderberry Syrup works wonders. The time before last, I was wanting to replenish my supply, but could only find generic. Yesterday my daughter brought in a couple bottles of the real deal. I had already been using the generic stuff.

On one of those whims that I sometimes get, this morning, instead of using the generic stuff, I grabbed the real Sambucol. Within 15 minutes, I could actually feel it going to work, and clearing up a lot of the congestion. I commented on it to Dd #1. She took a dose, and in just a little bit, she too commented how she could feel it working, and it was clearing her up too.

Between that, and an Ibuprophen tablet, I was able to do get a little bit done today. Nothing major, but when you feel really bad, sometimes just keeping up with things, is a strain.

We've had hardly any rain at all, so far. It's really been way too dry here for far too long. Strange weather for us.

Yep and their delivery charges aren't that bad either, surprisingly.

I was surprised how effective they were. Problem with mine is that I keep losing the silly little trigger button. DH keeps printing me new ones on his 3D printer. I keep losing them.

Glad you are feeling better Clue. Nothing worse than a spring cold.

Good morning, OF - keep whacking them carpenter bees.

Could you hit one with a BB gun? Morning OF. Two steps forward, one step back today, At least I slept well last night and not in two hour snatches.
