"I'm Not Gonna Miss Them"

Flies. They seem to go with horses, with country living. When the sun fills the bedroom with its rays, the flies remember to gently kiss my lips. Who needs an alarm clock? Tonight a cold front moved through, and hundreds of the gentle little creatures clamored to come in and enjoy the warmth. The title of this post was just spoken to me by my wife, as we sit back-to-back at our computer desks.

Check some green houses. There are some plants that certain insects avoid. You might want to look into them.

They are a problem here too, Bob. I detest them! We manage to keep them out of the house most of the time, but I really feel for our horse!

Regarding flies on lips, you must have some tremendous morning breath to thus attract them! ;) I should know, because our one dog Emma comes and stares in my face each morning, wanting a puff of my morning breath to start her day. Ewwwww. Dogs. *shrugs*
