We’re talking about ants here. Who at this time
of the year are just about everywhere.
What had me curious was how they scurry
about on our wood deck railing.
They move fast as if on a mission. Then stop,
whip around and go back the way they’d come.
One thought came to mind. I was curious
how fast they move.
I have my stopwatch to help me come up
with an answer. Knowing working it out will be
the problem. Then again that’s life in the
proverbial nutshell.
I’m referring to jobs around the house. Or wherever
you live. I look and the obvious is obvious. My windows
need help. They’re dirty, grungy from a long, cold
winter.
Peer through them and it’s obvious cleaning them
would make the rest of the home loved.
My office with windows, built into cedar frames, look
out on the deck. I used to clean them with soap and
and water. Until I discovered a liquid cleaner. Spray on,
wipe off. That easy. And the job is done.
Author’s comment: I’m obviously slow at picking up on
what make things easier. An electric toothbrush is
a good example. Or a light switch which turns itself on
when the darkness comes calling. And turns itself off
come morning .
