It went along the lines of (after 20 minutes of hysterical conversation on my end): "Sonja, it's ok, deep breath, get out some nasty cleaning products and spray the heck out of them. ![]() I think it was one of the only times he hung up on me. I don't call Chris up much at work in a tizzy but a year ago somebody waited too long to take out the trash and when I opened it up a horde of maggots poured forth onto the floor and I promptly sent a hysterical call to Chris tell him about the horror unfolding in my kitchen. I don't remember seeing any in Washington or Oregon although they must exist because there are flies up there too. My original intent of this post was to describe my horror at opening up my worm bin to find it crawling ( crawling I tell you) with maggots. See? Isn't she cute? Ok, point made, I'm moving on. Plus, I'm a sucker for the cuteness factor and there is nothing cuter than a honeybee with her pockets stuffed with pollen. Of course, we also need bacteria to break us down when we die but I'm currently choosing honey bees as the necessary ecosystem animal of the day. If you like your fruit, your figs, your beautiful flowers in the garden, then you need those beautiful little bees. And don't get me started on people that freak out around honey bees (unless they're africanized). I always found the girl who squealed at the sight of a spider, garter snake, or other unnamed animal to be incredibly annoying (although I did give out a bit of a yelp the other day when a snake zipped right between my feet). Now, I should warn you here that I pride myself on being rather calm when encountering various critters. Carrots were zipping around like little mosh pit surfers thanks to the mass of maggots. I opened up the lid and discovered that the entire surface of compost was SEETHING with maggots. I've been remiss lately in maintaining my worm bin so this weekend I decided it needed a little TLC. Unfortunately, this has also been the weekend of the FLY. So what exactly are you implying about mine? ![]() Oh, it's because you have busy lives? I see. I don't understand why you people can't update your blog on an hourly basis, because that's how frequently I've checked them this weekend. For me it includes reading lots of books (three so far) and checking the web frequently. I am a firm believer that Americans need to hop on the European bandwagon and take summer breaks, four weeks at a minimum.īeing a lazy bum is hard work. ![]() Everyone except Greg is in Anchorage currently since it's summer break (for the girls). Chris is up in Alaska for a couple days he was originally up there for work but got to sneak in a day and a half with the family. He added: “More than 70 members who left the hospital were arrested and taken for investigation, carrying weapons.”Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director general of the World Health Organization, said on December 12, “I’m extremely worried about reports of a raid at Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza after several days of siege.So, this has been the ultimate lazy weekend for yours truly.
