House Pets

OK, I know I am going to totally gross you all out but telling this story will help me deal with and learn to laugh at my new life. Sunday night I woke up and felt something crawl across my arm. I knew right away what it was and had to tell myself to get a grip, so I brushed "it" off my arm. A few minutes later got my flashlight so I could get up for a minute and sure enough there was a big cockroach inside my mosquito net. Got up and got him out and then found a few more of his friends in the hall. Just part of living in a house that is open to the outdoors.
When we first got here there were two tarantulas in the downstairs shower. Needless to say I refuse to use the downstairs bathroom; that is where I draw the line. We also have different lizards coming in and out which I don't mind. Wonder if they eat roaches or tarantulas? Probably not. We have had chickens running around on the ground floor but they are gone. I wonder where they went? Oh right, we had chicken for dinner a couple of times. So just a little update on our pets. Enjoy. Love and joy.

  1. I laughed at your story about the cockroach,tarantulas, lizards and chickens!!!! If you run the logic backward...you better hope that the cockroaches don't vanish. Meanwhile, while we lived in Brock there were tarantulas and they are a very friendly, non-poisonous spider! Now that does not mean the are pretty...I guess they better not go away either!

    Praying for U...
