your not going to believe what was trying to get in my house when I was bringing in the groceries.

It was a Big, black, glossy spider. The size of a tarancula(?). Ugh, I know that spiders eat bugs so I shouldn't dislike them but he was way to big. So I swatted him with the broom and swept him into the bed. It will be a while before I work in that bed you can bet. And don't tell me he could be anywhere. I know that but I'm trying not to think about it. Ugggggggggh.

I feel your pain! I really dislike spiders a lot. Stems from my sister---she used to own a tarantula and would make me pet it.

We have a gazillion spiders here....seriously. At least 20 come down each night and hang in the corners of the front porch. And there are some BIG garden spiders out there. I don't see them in the house though thankfully.

That happened to me in Quantico one time. I got "Spider Not" and sprayed the dickens out of them. I could not handle it at all.
