Happy November!


Yes, this is a real spider. Yes, it tried to eat me Thursday when I came home from work. Yes, I screamed like a little girl and almost set our alarm off because I wouldn't run past the demon. But, alas, I made it in, grabbed my camera (because hubs wouldn't believe this) and zoomed in as much as I could. Then, I shut the door and sent the picture to hubs asking him what I needed to do. His response? Stomp on it. Um, yeah right - that thing would go up my pants leg for sure! So, I grabbed some Oust! and was prepared to spray it to death, only it was gone! So, I called Terminix (sp?) and made an appointment for the spider killers to come on Friday. :) I haven't seen a spider since that lovely man left after booby trapping our house!

Finally, it's November! We are out of October! Yes! I clearly have issues with October and I was SO happy to see November yesterday. Not only that, but the extra hour we gained yesterday was lovely as well. Who knew that an hour could make that big of a difference?! I had a wonderful weekend and I hope ya'll did too! Tonight will be my first gym class. I'm either taking Spin or Pilates tonight! Wish me luck, because I'm nervous!

P.S. My grandmother was taken to the hospital last night. The new batch of chemo they have her on is making her very sick and she's not been holding food or liquids down. She's lost a lot of weight and has gotten weak. Please pray that the doctors can make her feel better so she's able to fight the cancer. Thank You.

Holy shite that spider is a monster. Good God I would have gone somewhere else until my husband came home. And stomp on it. No way! Then you can feel it crunch under your shoes. Ick. Can you tell I'm scared of spiders?

Do the spin class you will LOVE it.

Sick! I ran into my bedroom the other night with the lights off, couldn't find my sweater so I turned on the lights. Um yah, HUGE spider in the walkway of my bedroom to the hallway. He was all wrinkled HUGE and wiggling. CLEARLY I had interfered with his space running into my bedroom. AHhhhhhhhhhhhh!
