Where is my knight?

Well, yesterday we had a new friend wasp try to move in with us....
do you see it up in there?  it was way meaner than it looks!

My two little farm girls alerted me of the situation as I was making lunch...and as they were buildng a tent to hide from the wasp.....

Alli saying "Is it gone?"

Hubby had awakened from his nap and was out in the time machine barn....I called him via cell phone and briefed him on our situation.  He said "What do you want me to do about it?"  Uh?? What???  What do want YOU to do about it?  Well.....I want YOU to come in here like a knight in shining armour and get that damn thing!  I want YOU to come rescue me and your two little princesses! 


Put he didn't......so I made him into a knight!
"Did I hear a damsel in distress?"

So what to do, what to do.  We had no insect killer spray....since husband had used it all up the other day.  Had no sticky fly tape to catch it with, since husband had thrown that away.  Yes, I will turn this whole scenerio into his fault for not helping his damsel in distress.......

"Eeeek!  Oh help me, help me!  There is a wasp in here!"
(that's me!)


So, I set out with a rolled up newspaper. I hit it twice and did nothing put piss the poor thing off, scare the crap out of myself, and make my children hide further into their tent.


Let's take a moment for you to admire how clean the corner of my window is!
I'm a neat freak!  What can I say!
But that wasp is MAD!!!!

All of a sudden, I had a fantastic idea! 
 (Like I usually do!) 
   I will spray it with hairspray! 
 It will work like glue!
(hey, I made a short poem!)



And it worked!  Now let's hope it was "All Day Hold."

Little Alli finally came out of her hiding tent.  Looked at the remains of the wasp...and said "Mmmm, it smells good over here!"  Yes dear, that is how a princess kills a wasp, and keeps the house smelling good!

  1. Funny. A wasp sting hurts worse than bee sting.
    Good photos depicting self-protection of girls.
    Keep up the humor in your extraordinary blog.
