I'm busting my ass today, trying to pull my house back together. We managed to rid our mattress and box spring of bed bugs, Zerrin's mattress is currently outside in the hot sun. Later, when we pull it in, we'll coat it in lavender-smelling Lysol.
Who knew Lysol killed bed bugs? *shrugs* Just glad we found a way to kill them.
We checked Xy's bed this morning. Not a sign of them. Nothing along the baseboards, nothing along the cracks and crevices of her box spring, not a thing on her mattress. We're thinking it's because her room is in the back of the house, next to the washer and dryer- and bed bugs hate extreme heat and extreme cold. Don't get me wrong, we're still going to buy mattress protection sets for each of our beds, but Z gets them first.
I'm tired, but in a good way tired. Just means I'll sleep really well tonight. He wants to go fishing later tonight, and camping. We tried fishing last night, but neither of us really got any bites last night.
I've been attempting to do laundry today. I've gotten most of what was on the floor washed and dried, I've got to have Roy clean out the dryer tube leading to the vent. It's taking twice as long to dry clothes.
I'm going to take a break. It just seems like every time I try to get back to what I need to be doing, Roy comes in and starts yammering at me. He's out mowing lawns, I'm in taking care of the house. I work better without someone yammering at me. It doesn't break my train of thought that way.
*sigh*
I miss my girls. I hope they're OK.
