~Buggy Spring~

Graybelle loves her house

You can tell its spring by the ants

and fly's and bugs already. Plus the

buds on the trees. I have these black

kinda big black ants. I bet yesterday

between Penny and I we killed at

least 10 of them. I hate bugs of any

kind.

I was laying on my bed last evening

and noticed Dutch kept staring at the

ceiling, so of course I looked to see

what he was looking at.. There was

a spider crawling across it by the smoke

detector. Dutch was going nuts trying

to figure out a way to get to it... If there

is any kind of crawly thing, Dutch goes

insane trying to get it.. LB he doesn't

care unless it gets on him..THEN he

will panick cuz he knows Dutch is gonna

slap him to get to the bug.


I have a wardrobe in my bedroom that

happens to be right under the smoke

detector and if Dutch climbs on the back

of my chair he can jump up to the top of

it, and of course that's just what he did.

I was worried he was going to lose his

balance the way he kept leaning and

trying to slap at the spider. The spider

must have seen him and it crawled to

the center of the ceiling right over ME!

I was NOT happy!

I don't have anything that I can use to

reach the ceiling, not even a broom,

I'm just too short. I sat there for quite

a while watching that spider and trying

to think of something I could use to

reach it..l have nothing.. So, NOW what

do I do? I know I wasn't gonna just lay

down and try to go to sleep with that

spider over my head..

I had an empty soda bottle sitting by

me on the table, I picked it up and

threw it at the spider knocking it down

to the floor, Dutch immediately jumped

down to my chair, then to the floor. I

guess the spider was stunned cuz it

didn't move right away. Dutch stepped

on it then bit it and needless to say,

that was the end of the spider! I got

comfy and went to sleep!

Today and the rest of this week is rain.

It got so dark about 10 this morning that

the street lights came on. There are a lot

of rivers and one is only a block from my

house. I hope that it doesn't flood. I heard

on the radio that the 3 rivers in Three Rivers

are hitting flood stage. I hope they don't go

over, that would be awful.. Makes me think

I should get some renters insurance just in

case.. Look on the map and you can see the

rivers and lakes that are right here in Colon.

Palmer Lake is just 3 blocks down the road.

Joys of spring I guess...

Penny brought a plate from her Easter dinner

and I didn't eat it yesterday, so I think I will

have that today. I have no ambition or energy

today, mainly cuz I'm so achey from this rain.

I may just eat and go in on my bed and watch

TV.. Ive been watching a lot about the wedding

of Prince William. Its all over our TV.. I wish

him well...there seems to be a curse on the

royals since most of all the marriages end in

divorce. He sure looks like his mother.

Time to post and fix some lunch..I hope you

are having a nice day.I'm achey, but still a

GORGEOUS WEEBLE.. :-) Keep well

and God Bless...

Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,

I'm honored to call you 'friend'.

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again...
