I have been posting some old blogs that I found on my computer, and realized that I lost a portion of *me* somewhere along the line -- letting my job be my main focus has really put me off my game, and it's time to get it back.
Friday night, I took Sadie outside for her last little trip before bed. As I stood there waiting as she dashes around the yard and makes certain that things are in their rightful place, then barks once or twice more as if she's saying goodnight to the neighboring dogs, I watched this large sewer roach scuttling it's way across the patio toward the house. I grabbed the broom, intending to knock it off it's feet, then reached for my ever-handy sprayer for bugs and flipped the switch on. I started to spray, following that critter as he spun left and right to get away from the spray.
As the path of my spray caught other corners of the yard, I watched in horror as not one or two but FOUR more started scuttling away from the bug spray as well! I don't like those things at all, and having five of them scattering across my patio in all different directions while I was stranded out there wearing socks but no shoes ... YUCK!! hehehe
Now that the episode is behind me, I can chuckle at myself ......
but they creep me out and in order for me to be able to sleep after seeing them, I had to clean my kitchen (again!) before I could get into bed. lol
