Dish Duty

I was cleaning up dinner and just getting the dishes ready to put in the dishwasher. Suddenly I see something move by my head and drop onto the floor in front of the dishwasher. I look down and see another black widow. Eww.. I am not liking this at all. It started to go towards the cupboards and disappear only so show up again at a later date... and I couldn't allow that. I had to step on it! I HATE stepping on bugs/spiders. Hate it! So for now, I am on strike. Dustyn has dish duty until he gets someone over here to spray! I don't want to see anymore black widows! Yuck! I think it was trying to attack me and missed! :P

Cat-faced spider

Dustyn and I were at my parents house and we found this spider outside! Yuck! It was kinda cool. I had never seen a spider like that before! And it was very very large!

**Alecia, you may not want to look at this picture!

One reason I don't look forward to fall...

All the bugs and spiders decide to move in to our house!! Every year our house has lots of stink bugs. This does not excite me at all. I guess I can deal with stink bugs over some other creatures. But today I found the biggest stink bug that I have ever seen! It was crawling down the curtain... I was going to stop and get a picture, but I couldn't risk giving it the opportunity to perfume my house! Yuck! So I got a cup and scooped it up and threw it outside (cup and all) all before he had the opportunity to raise his little behind. Now that was some quick movement!!


But the one bad thing is that I found our first black widow for the year! I hate those!! I think it is time to call someone to come spray our house. Grrr.... I hope they aren't bad this year. Last year we only saw a few, but the year before was bad!!


And I found two earwigs!! YUCK! I HATE EARWIGS!! So nasty! We usually don't have them in our house, so I wasn't too excited to find them on the curtains last night. Dang curtains!!


Guess I better go call someone!! Grrr.... I hope the mice will leave us alone this year!!
