Originally posted by Techdiver Alright. so I haven't publicly announced I have been seeing someone she is awesome and I wasn't really ready to commit to a new relationship already. Despite taking precautions. And it wasn't planned. But I am excited anyways. I am going to be a Dad for the first time in my life.

I'm going to hope that everything goes great... and this is great for everyone.  I would venture to guess that people would have thought I was jumping in too soon if I said THE FIRST girl I would date after my divorce would be my next wife.  The rebound is never "the one", right?

But since you posted, I guess I have to say that I'm nervous for you.  You are just out of your marriage, probably not a lot of dating (again, doesn't always need to happen).  Things might have been going good with her but a kid is another story...

I personally waited close to 5-6 years before marrying my wife even though I knew she was the one.  I just needed more TIME between her and the ex.

I'm hoping for the best for you and giving you my full support, but I'm also concerned.  Too much too soon, IMO.  Good luck.

Yuck.  We get ants on rare occasions.  HOPEFULLY it's ants.

Just have to be careful.  Can't leave food out and there is an ant gel that works wonders.  Track the location where they come in the  house (follow the ant trail) and shoot a little of this gel in there and it's all good.

my skin is crawling. I need another beer.

I found some ant spray in the shed and sprayed the crap out of them and then googled "ants or termites." ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh.



ETA: they are definitely just ants. but still gross.

My remodel of the basement discovered the mother load of termites. OMG: the framing was completely destroyed and the drywall was ruined. I had to rip all of it out and spray and disinfect all of it. Bastard$ ate their way through the concrete to get to the sweet stuff.

Eww. Those sound like termites. Despite what they are, there's a colony somewhere which is their homeland. You have to kill that off despite what they are.

Seriously; pay the couple hundy and get an exterminator in there. Even though you can buy the identical stuff they use at True Value, they know where to apply and find them.

they are NOT termites - i googled it and i'm confident in my diagnosis. i'm going to clean up, spray outside, and if they come back within a week i'll get the terminator in. i have had them before during the first really hot/wet weather of the summer, and they never come back. i'm hoping this is the case again...

If it's ground level, dig down a few inches of the foundation dirt and open up a WMD on them underground as well. Kill that nest. If it's upstairs, get that legder board and flashing below the deck and siding.

If you say so. How as the Grand Canyon. And by `Grand Canyon' I mean `Cord's Mom'?

And how was your trip to Arizona with the wife?
