AAAAAHHH Spiders!!!

OMG  I thought I was going to die and my kids find me in the laundry room. I was doing the laundry- Like always- when I pulled a shirt out of the dryer. THAT is when my heart stopped beating!!!
This is what flew on my arm and then to the ground


I HATE SPIDERS!!  I remember our first deployment and towards the time when he was going to be coming home, due to weather changes, we started having lots of spiders in the house. Sometimes they would be crawling on our carpet and I would grab a coffee cup and place it over the spider. When he came home he had several cups with spiders in them waiting. again- I HATE SPIDERS!

So- after my heart stopped and I lost all sound- I realized it was my daughters plastic spider she got out of the candy machine. Well, I don't think I need to explain where that went next- THE GARBAGE!!

I'm so sorry but I find that story hilarious!! I hate spiders too though...When my husband and I were at a B&B I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. I washed my hands, and turned and stopped an inch short of my nose touching a spider (he was hanging from the ceiling) that was probably the size of a quarter...with legs. I almost screamed, but didn't....lol

Hilarious, I would have done the same thing.

I was about to take a shower in our 1920's era downtown apartment in Seattle, I pulled the curtain back and then Thud on the tub, HUGE spider. I was frozen Naked looking at it, it was frozen looking YES LOOKING at me. I backed out of the room ran to the kitchen grabbed a plastic (clear) container, slowly moved back into the bathroom and got close enough to place the plastic on it. Then I backed out of the room and closed the door. It stayed there until that evening when The husband came home. It was big enough to freak him out too. Showers got really hard after that event.
