We had a battle with carpet beetles in an apartment we lived in when my oldest was one. I tore the place apart!

Omg the battle against the bugs is real! Between the houseplant flies, the ants in the bathroom because my kids insist on eating snacks in there, and the ocasional dog flea, it feels like a never-ending battle against insects that my dependents drag in. But I’m alright so long as it’s not lice. One glimpse of lice and I’m out!

lol it’s the ultimate mental hedging of motherhood- I always can make myself feel better that however bad a situation is, I’m glad it’s not worse (aka lice or broken bones or some other gross or painful/expensive situation.)

I know! Ironic as well I broke the chest of drawers and the clothes then had to be on the floor until it was fixed. 😂
