Where I spent my day

I've spent the majority of my day in our powder room/bathroom/whatever you prefer to call it.

Lately, I have noticed an abundance of gnats swarming in the powder room right above the sink.

I have tolerated our little nuisances for a few days now, but with Christmas company arriving tomorrow, I would not let myself put off our little pets another day.



So operation remove the gnats began.



I recruited my sweet little neighbor to come over and back me up in case they decide to attack.

See that little overflow hole there in the sink? It appears there are dozens upon dozens (trust me that is how many have emerged thus far) of leftover Halloween pumpkin seeds wedged in there. (G "cleaned" some seeds off for me in the bathroom sink at Halloween so we could bake them in the oven.)

The gnats have congregated in that little hole having themselves a little Christmas feast.



It's time for this feast to end. We filled up the sink with water hoping to flood out whatever was caught inside. Then I also had a clothes hanger shoving it down in the hole pulling up seeds, then grabbing them with my tweezers.

We didn't do too hot our first go at the seed removal.



My second attempt was more of a success.

I have no clue how many more are in there. Maybe I got most of them and the gnats will move back over to our other sink where our compost jar is.

All I know is little boys make life fun.
