In other news I seem to be having a week of making more work for myself. First, I accidentally paid the wrong company for a bill using online banking. The money went to an account that was closed for over a year. I had to spend 1/2 hour on hold yesterday to try and retrieve the money and hopefully, I will get a cheque back in 7-10 business days. Note to anyone who does online banking, delete old accounts off the list! I also managed to delete part of our corporate blog by accident so have techies at work as we speak to reinstall the widget I deleted. Fortunately, they are on a year-long contract and we are due a bit of maintenance on that contract each month so likely not to cause an extra bill in the mail.
Finally, if you are interested in treasure hunting at all read this article regarding a stash of new-found treasure found in a British Cave. Cool!
That is quite the hornet's nest. I hope you were able to snuff it out safely.
ReplyDeleteWe thought we got it all the first night but the next day saw some rebuilding so had to dispatch those as well. We are all clear now thank goodness.
DeleteUGH computer probs and hornets, that is a run of problems. I say a drink is in order!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, hubby dealt with the hornets but a drink definitely was in order with regard to the online banking. Still waiting for a refund...
DeleteThe treasure article is really nifty, thanks for sharing. Good luck with the hornets, those bastards are evil!
ReplyDeleteThey are evil. It has been a hot summer and they love that.
DeleteWe had two nests this year. One was visible on Wayne's writer's retreat boat. We waited until night and shot it with spray by flashlight. Caught it before it was really large. The other one was under the eves over our bedroom window. We couldn't get the spray to go directly inside, so it didn't destroy the nest. Our friend John came and went up a ladder, gave it a heavy spray and covered the entrance hole with some wood moulding. Since then, no more problems (knock on wood). - Margy
