My random thought is I just made a new avatar ....fish tank thingy, going for the relaxing look.

Everyone likes to stare into a fish tank to relax kind of like the camp fire sitting around it and looking into the flames jump around are relaxing

I travel in a small RV, and am always pro-active about ants.  Nothing in my cupboard is open.  Stuff is in unopened containers, packages, or in plastic canisters with screw on lids. 

When I open anything that can't be totally resealed or canistered, it goes into the fridge--ants don't go into the cold. 
Given all that, last night I saw what looked like a dark spot on a wall, next to my dinette. small, quarter-sized.   Upon closer look it was those tiny ants, I don't know what variety they are, but they are so small you need strong reading glasses or a magnifying glass to identify them as "ant".  I don't think they could get much smaller without becoming a virus or bacteria. 

So, I went into my ant prevent mode, spraying around wheels, and hoses outside, upturning everything.  Spraying with all windows open.  Just a small spot of them. I think they actually came on board on a kleenex I had sitting on the picnic table outside, and were looking for a way out.   Made me think of the old movie the "Amazing Shrinking Man." 

In the final scene, after the guy is still big enough to have to battle a spider with a straight pin, he gets down to atomic size.  There is a parting thought from him about no matter how small he gets, he's still here . . . or there.  Like a quark or something.  Who knows (LuvHandles) how many of those shrunk people are heading toward infinity through the back door.  I hope there was none of them among those ants; because if there was, they will shrink no more. 

Geez, I hate ants.

I'm Spanky, and I approve this vent.

It's a nice Avatar.

Thank you kindly Harley, so far no moving but I will work on that, .

I like the fish, Linville. And Spanky, you always keep me thinking. My vent is simple.
I don't want to cook dinner, but I have to tonight. End of rant. Such problems I have.

I wish I could do all the wise things I see and post. But at least I notice them. And putting them out there seeing them helps the chances of some of the wisdom sinking in......

HA! Thanks Linville, but I've seen enough of that here down south. I think all those that were flooded out would feel more relaxed with some sunshine LOL.

I hope everyone has a beautiful, sunny Easter weekend with loads of goodies.

Back at ya!! cricket.

I did like ur picture though, Linville.

Cricket had a very good point. Happy Holiday.

No doubt Cricket, sorry to post such a bad picture for you..

I will now have to go find some sunshine.....for you and the down south folks.....sometimes we all get caught up in our own world and cant get out of the local spot but yes I remember now the crazy flooding and all down your way.

If I can let me replace the thought for you.

==If you are in the recent way too much rainy area and you want to relax look at the picture.....( better Cricket,    )

Thanks Linville. Myself, I luv the rain, but NOT TOO MUCH at one time LOL.
Weather here is beautiful today. More rain is coming tomorrow, but don't think it will be too much.

I hope everyone has a sunny day/weekend that matches Linville's picture.

Thank you for that Linville
