Happy Thursday!
Small Success Thursday is BACK and on Instagram, but I thought I’d bring it back here too, on account of – I wanna! HA
I usually get up with Marque about 0445 to make his breakfast, put together his lunch, and get him coffee… he leaves by 0520. But this mornin, there were all over the covered bagel in his lunch box (he left it to thaw)… ugh. Yeah, this place is buggier than Florida and Texas combined! Seriously!


In the first picture, you see a lot of my kitchen. The ants in question were near the mixer (covered in Texas Cloth) and yes that is 27 degrees C on the fan (aka Air conditioner). The second picture is the shelves where behind them – and in all the bins had sugar ants in them. Thank GOODNESS we keep everything in containers (thank you Tupperware) and bags (ziploc).
But let me tell you about the small success… After a brief moment or ten of freaking out at the ants covering the bagel I needed to cut and toast… I cleaned it all up, he helped when he came down! We sprayed & wiped the bins AND powdered outside on the terrace! Yes, after all this…After I got hubs out on time, I sat down with my coffee and thought “someone, somewhere would love to be alive killing ants!”
Now listen, it’s not glamorous. But – staying positive is everything!
Other Small Successes:
- making headway on PTSA paperwork.
- continuing to set boundaries with manipulative people.
- I am proud that my attitude is finally getting better thanks to our Loving Father’s continual correction!
- starting to set attainable goals and write again!
Yay! Happy Thursday all! Tell me about your small successes!
