As I was reading at my computer a few days ago, a flying ant landed on the screen. I then saw another flying past me. Later that night, there were a few of them on my television screen and flying around the light. That was driving us crazy. Then the next ...

Florida and swimming pools go hand in hand. When we first moved into our house, our pool did not have an enclosure over it. Therefore, all the leaves from the big tree in the front dumped into it, and it was really hard to maintain. We put up an enclosure...

Everyone has somebody they look up to when they are a kid. I used to look up to my cousin Linda. She was absolutely gorgeous, and just a couple years older than I was. I recall wanting to be just like her. She lived outside of Chicago, and I grew up in MO...

It's a beautiful day after the rain today, and I wanted to open our windows to let some fresh air into our house, only to forget that our dog barks at every tiny little noise that comes in through those windows! Therefore, we rarely ever open a window un...
