Arrow Happy Weekend Everyone! Weekend update.

Hello? How is everyone?

What are you doing this weekend? Any company visiting? Any shopping?

I'm behind my usual summer schedule of cleaning the house.
I bought some pillows. 'Have to go buy more.

Does anyone have tricks that do not include use of neurotoxins to get ants out of my kitchen?

JudeLauren, can you show me how to play Magic Piano on my iPod?

M.

Wait a minute... It's been a while since we did these threads ! LOVE them ! Thanks for starting them again Mari !

I need to study becsuse this monday I have to present my project in front of ALL my institute so id better not do a ridiculous....

I dont have an ipod but an ipad and want to play the piano too !

Oh oh... For ants.... Have you tried detergent ? I feel sorry for them but they can be annoying.... Do you want to kill them ? Because if you just want to prevent them getting in, put mint, cinnamon or cloves in door snd windows.... They hate those and wont cross

Hi, Majo!

Have a productive weekend studying!

Regarding the ants: I found some organic spray with the main ingredient as Soy Bean Oil. That killed them but did not keep them away. Fresh minions showed up. I want them to stay away. I'll put out some of the things on your list:

Good luck Monday. Olympic athletes spend hours practicing their moves in their heads.
Think through your own steps over the weekend. By Monday you will be a professional.

Gosh I remember my grandma with the black pepper in her trailer. I use vinegar when cleaning and have not had ants in years.

This weekend we extend our unusual heatwave, but only 90* this week will still be 88* which is a long hot summer. We have the Ez set pool up, but the rain the last few days and cooler weather kept us out. I need to drain it off, and run the solar heater through the pump.

Other then that this weekend I want to redo dd room. She is 16 in Oct and so needs an update. From Barbie I took her out for sheets, what does she pick out Hello Kitty. But we are going with the colors in the pattern of Pink and brown. She is still home schooling so not much in clothing needs, maybe 2 pairs of jeans and yoga pants.

I would love to paint her room, no I have to paint her room...maybe during the week. Next weekend we have a family reunion out of town. I get to see my two Aunts that are only 2-3 years older then me. We grew up like sisters.

Everyone have a great one

And MarJo on Monday knock them over with the presentation!

Heart Music music!

Happy to!

It's an app from Smule, called mini Magic Piano. Recently it's been free & comes with some music. Weekly, a few more pieces of free music are there which you can download. I've not used it on iPod touch, but it adverts as working on 3rd generation.

It works by dropping notes for left & right hand, spaced where keys would be, & dropped close or far apart to work as a quarter-note, whole note etc. It helps a lot if you know what the piece is supposed to sound like . You can set it so that, even if you don't tap the exact note, the right note plays (my choice).

Only my cats get to hear me & it's very relaxing & fun.
