I saw this spider yesterday while mowing the lawn. I thought it was going to jump off the cement on to my face and start eating me. Hello! This thing was huge! I ran and got the camera and had the boys come and look at it. I made sure they stayed well away from it. I don't know what kind it is, or if it's poisonous, but I wasn't about to try and find out. After we messed with it for a bit I smashed it with a big stick. When we did that I figured out that it must have been carrying a bunch of eggs in that huge bubble on its back. You could see the individual eggs in all the goo that came out. SO DISGUSTING! I was not about to let this thing live, crawling around my house or all those babies that it would have had. YUCK! I get the willies just looking at the pictures. I wonder how many more of these things are out there!
Gwen grew pumpkins this year just for the heck of it, and we're glad she did! We went over to her house on Sunday and picked out a bunch of pumpkins for FREE! I bought a pumpkin carving kit, so we can make cool designs on the pumpkins! I got a few to put on my porch just for decoration!
My dishwasher is now in working condition thanks to my hubby Tyrel. It only took him a couple hours to hook up the plumbing and electrical on Saturday. It was so nice not to do any dishes on Sunday after dinner with Tyrel's parents! We should've done this a long time ago. I won't take my dishwasher for granted anymore after washing dishes for a year and a half!
So we finally got the new cabinet & counter top put in. We still need to hook up the water & electricity to the dishwasher, but it looks great and I have much more needed counter space. Hopefully I'll be able to use the dishwasher soon and not just look at it! Yay! My dishwashing days are almost over!:)
