If you think you’re too small to have an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito.

Anita Roddick

It is time for the annual event. Putting up the mosquito net.

It is a humbling experience.

I used to have a mosquito tent. Unfold it and it popped into shape. It took 5 seconds. I loved that thing. So did the cats.

Running up and down and over at full speed and full claws. In weeks it was torn to shreds.

Now I have a simpler system. Really? Just a box sized net that fits over a queen sized bed.

No trouble to attach to hooks on the ceiling. No trouble except the corners are not marked and every year I forget to mark them.

No worries after an hour of putting eyelets on hooks, then taking them down moving them to the correct hooks, it starts to look like a net.

Sort of like the one I have, except Mine has way more eylets to attach.

Another hour I should be mosquito proof. The two kittens left in here, thats another problem.

Will I get to my coffee while its hot? Maybe if I stop writing.
