This is a resurrected post I decided to share again in light of Kampsplete's sweet and kind words in her post today.
Here's a funny spider story from when me and my hubbie were first married……..
my husband is definitely scared of spiders. he had a room mate when he lived in california that collected black widows. i remember him telling me stories about John throwing wads of black string over the shower onto him saying, “say hello to blackie!” at which my husband would promptly FREAK OUT.
when we were first married and living in TN he came running into the bathroom one evening while i was showering. he was yelling something like, “come here, come here! it's an emergency” (i had visions of this being my life after children, not with my newly aquired and very handsome husband)
quickly drying off i enter the kitchen with towel wrapped around my body to find my husband standing across the kitchen from a giant wolf spider shooting rubber bands at the thing. okay, it may be a female thing but what if you hit it and it goes running instead of dying. YIKES.
what do i do? i promptly jump over the spider, grab the can of RAID and position myself for the death spray. Ready. Aim. Fire. What??? What's that? As momma spider is promptly curling to her death a million zillion quadrillion baby spiders who where inconspicuously perched on her back run for dear life. needless to say my spraying radius got bigger and bigger.
i think the entire breakfast area got a dose of RAID.
now that they are ALL dead….
who gets to clean them all up?
I'll let you guess!!!
now don't get me wrong…my hubbie will slay the fiercest of dragons for me, but spiders? no way!
Oh how I LOVE this story. I’m sitting here cracking up again. I had forgotten the part about his friend throwing the string into the shower at college. TOO funny. I can just picture this 6 ft person screaming! Oh Julie….that is such a good one! I had forgotten too that you sprayed the thing with Raid, but I didn’t go correct it. Now that you have posted the story again, I want people to come and read it themselves. I DO NOT do it justice….that is the best. I like that Julie-girl too!
Love ya, Kathy

I really appreciated the comment.
Spiders – gross! I get my dh to kill them when I can, but I can do it if he isn’t available. Wolf spiders are creepy! Too big for comfort. I could never have a spider as a pet!
to have no fear and to use a BIG SHOE !!! It is a very good spider killer and non toxic too ! LOL .
PS: I just LOVE your new avatar my SSiC. You are so pretty with you dd.
