Now that my hot flashes are in full swing, I so identify with Towanda! Somehow rearranging the floor plan of the house hasn't really made me feel all that much better. LOL

Lilwing,

Towanda is from the movie Fried Green Tomatoes. Kathy Bates played a character that referenced herself as Towanda when her hormonal changes kinda took over and she did some crazy off the wall things. you would have to see the movie to get the full impact. We all love the movie here.

I love Towanda moments!! My favorite part in the movie is when she smashes up the car of those two young smart-mouthed girls.

I had a major TOWANDA moment today...where you just won't put up with anymore s**t...sorry for the swearing but somedays I could smack someone.

3 weeks ago, I asked the apartment manager to have them come over and spray for red ants. With it being SO hot and dry here, they come in to get water and whatever else they can get. Well remember my ant problem in the garage??? That was just the tip of the iceberg. I got a call from Charlie's daycare that he had broken out in a rash...rush to school...rush home...rush to doctor...have to keep him home 48 hours until they can figure out what is wrong. Well, I go to change his sheets on his bed (since I was called away in the midst of doing them today) and his bed is INFESTED WITH ANTS!!!! OH MY GOD!!! I AM SO STEAMING!! My poor little boy was getting eaten alive and all because they didn't come to spray. It makes me feel dirty but I have 90% of the house packed up and all my open food was used up and I just cleaned the whole entire house, wiping down with bleach and vinegar. I am so mad right now...I marched right over to that office and tore them a new one. They are nice people but slow off the line in getting things done. They rather sit around and gossip. I think they did feel bad because Charlie is ate up....literally...he is going to sleep with me tonight so I can put some aloe on his bites. I am mad and now I am worried more ants are going to get in. I went an re-mopped all the linoleum with borax and water, I laid down cinnamon at all the door and windows sills outside and I had to use ant killer in Charlie's bedroom. I have the window open and I dragged his dresser out into the hallway so I can get his clothes. I am so mad....Towanda had her day today!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR....

Heather I'm with you. If my baby had ant bites like that I would be really mad. Have the apts. sprayed yet! Right now we are having a flea problem. I even know people who don't have pets and are having a flea problem. So we have been spraying,even though I don't like the chemicals. I have been putting frontline on the dogs and cat. Don't really like that either. Hope you get the ants under control. Until then......

I think it is because it is SOOOOO dry here in Texas, at least the hill country, that everything is trying to come inside. I am so hopping mad right now!!!!

Oh my! Miss Wilma, I'm going to have to watch it now, I never did see it when it was out and I had wanted to then. Thank you for the little push to go rent it now.

Annika the sad thing is the sweet girl died on them. Heather the first time I did Roundtop, we set our booth up and the next morning we had fireant hills all in it. . For all of you that have never stepped on a fire ant hill the pain is horrible. I really feel for Little Charlie
