Today, Oda Mae and I got to go do a little shopping. We went to our local Lowes and bought some wasp spray. When we went outside this morning, I noticed some "Paper Wasps" around the house. Anyone know how to get rid of these things for good? I know, I know they keep insects away and they don't sting unless they're provoked. I don't want them in my eves!!!!
Then we went to the local thrift store to see what we could find.
I hit the jackpot!
Right before Christmas I was telling Oda Momma that I wanted one of those jogging strollers. We happened to find one at a thrift store for $30.00. But...I wanted to wait until it went on the "blue tag and it's 50% off sale". I missed my chance. By the time the blue tag sale came, I wasn't able to be there when they opened and someone else got my bargain. TODAY, I wasn't going to miss out. I found an "Instep" jogger that was in great shape for $40.00. That's about 60% off what they cost new in the store. It was however missing one of the shoulder straps, so when I got it home I looked up the company and gave their warranty and parts department a call. They said that they would send me a strap for FREE!!! That rocks! The lady I talked to said that it was "a gesture of good will". Yeah for me and Oda Mae. We get to go running soon.

I'm no expert, but every time I needed to get rid of wasp's nests, the procedure was always the same:
1. Buy long-range wasp spray
2. Shoot as much spray as you can at the nest til they start coming after you.
3. Run
4. Faster
5. Keep running
I would leave Oda Mae inside with Oda Momma when you do this.
