Sounds...Your son forgot that you're a doctor? <br /><br />Sounds like it might not be safe to have him living in a dorm. He'd be better off someplace a little more his speed, like a soft room with no sharp corners and all the electrical outlets covered. Give him some plush toys to play with, and a set of Duplo, and maybe some crayons if you have somebody who can supervise to make sure he doesn't eat them.

Don't kids today do chores anymore?<br /><br />Jeez, Grumpypants, I know I"m being a grouchy and rude old bat, but how spoiled are these kids?<br /><br />This isn't like friends of mine who went to move into their dorm room and found live roaches everywhere. The story goes that every day for three days, housing insisted that exterminators would be there the next morning. Finally the friends bagged up some of the roaches and took them to the head of housing, saying, "We're not paying for extra roommates." The exterminators were there the next the morning.Moosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10397412122635951126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-27366996349820804552018-10-02T20:28:54.128-04:002018-10-02T20:28:54.128-04:00this reminds me of the coming home from camp story...this reminds me of the coming home from camp story..... the bath tub picture....<br /><br />squarely in the "things you didn't think you had to teach someone" department.

I think it's ant mating season, or whatever it is with those queens. <br /><br />I found a trail of tiny ones busily lining up past the sink last week. (And, yes, my significant other inquired as to how often dishes were being washed, or whether the watermelon had been left out on the counter overnight.) Last night I knew that the countertops had been properly disinfected but it was a fascinating show behind the faucets, almost a frenzy of activity, as those ants chased each other back and forth. I don't know where they went, but they weren't there this morning. <br /><br />But, there's other fish to fry. The 46-year old refrigerator defrost cycle is stuck on 'warming' and no circulating fan, so I've had to hurry up and make the peach pie, pear tart, and pawpaw bread from frozen fruit saved for Thanksgiving when there might be visitors, and the sweet potatoes last night were baked with plums and cinnamon and strawberries. We've had to eat shrimp three times today. I am so sick of fried shrimp.<br /><br />Hilarious doings. Hard to believe Frank is a freshman, though. But, Dr. G. It's only ants! Ants, schmantz! Please, do NOT tell us about cockroaches. Just, please, no! Not that. Maybe the ants can be a lead-in to avoid that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-14123682268083224882018-10-01T14:59:48.245-04:002018-10-01T14:59:48.245-04:00I work in a Doctors Office
