Cody and I Just moved into a basement apartment in Provo and there are plenty of bugs! At first it didn't bother me but then they started messing with me. The first time I came face to face with a spider i was in the shower! I felt like crying every time i had to close my eyes to wash some kind of soap out of my hair or off my face I was terrified that it would somehow get me while my eyes were closed and then it happened, I closed my eyes and it disappeared. I was so creeped out I finished my shower in record time. Later that night while on the TOILET of all places it reappeared. This time however I decided that I was going to do something I hadn't done in years....I was going to kill a spider. Feeling a rush of bravery I removed my shoe and with all the force I could muster I whacked the spider, it then flew off of the the shower curtain landed safely on the ground and crawled away. How that it lived is beyond me.
The next day however I found another spider and thought " This is the time to redeem myself. I WILL KILL THIS SPIDER!" Removing my shoe I bent down and whacked the crap out of the stupid thing..... It to crawled away. The day after that while standing in the kitchen feeding the baby a spider the size of a quarter CHASED ME onto the couch! After that I decided that I was done dealing with spiders so that night when cooking dinner and another spider appeared I asked my sweet husband,(who was laying on the couch) " Sweetie,I'm cooking dinner and there is a really scary spider, will you kill it? His reply... " Kill it yourself." and then he rolled over. Upon his waking up he was confused to find me somewhat upset. He had no idea that I had asked him any thing or that he had responded.
Living here is already a crazy adventure and I'm sure it will only get crazier and crazier but it is our very own adventure and we are loving it!
