Spiders and Bumps!
I hate big fat juicy spiders and bumping myself in the head!
While cleaning our front porch yesterday, I used the broom to de-cobweb the ceiling and noticed several fat spiders prowling about! Ugh. I hate fat spiders and especially if I have to squash them myself. I retrieved the wasp spray from the attic and liberally sprayed the spiders I could see plus other cracks and crevices where others might hide and watched to see them drop to the porch floor where I could squish them! Eventually two of them fell prey to the drenching of the wasp spray and lay on the porch waiting their final demise. Ugh, ugh, ugh! They had big black spots or maybe they were eyes on their heads. I looked around til I found an appropriate rock with which to perform my tasteless task. A rock is much better that stepping on them. I forcefully finished the job and cleaned up the mess with a paper towel. The result? A spiderless porch for an hour!
Why would you bump yourself in the head? you might ask. I didn't do it on purpose! I was washing a couple of particularly bulky unbalanced items in the washing machine and as it was spinning in the "spin" cycle it was bouncing all over the place and making a horrific noise. I went quickly to fix the problem, threw open the cover of the machine to redistribute the load, only the top wasn't really all the way up and as I leaned over to reach into the machine, it came down and whammed and I mean whammed me in the head! It hurt soooo bad that I just stood there for awhile as I absorbed the shock. C (my son!) came to check on me to see if I was alright. I'm okay but it still hurts even now nearly a week later and is a rather ugly yellowish color. Fortunately, it's covered by my hair so no one is the wiser, except me when I wash my face!
