Spiders in my bed.

It's after 6am and I haven't slept a wink.

I was up late to begin with talking with my sister, surfing the web for potential tombola prizes for the international luncheon this November, and thinking about C's upcoming birthday party. When I finally made it up to bed what did I find sitting on my bed? A SPIDER... a 2" black spider on my white Matelassé quilt. Whaaa!! I didn't scream even though I really would have liked to. But the last thing I wanted to do was startle S and encourage the spider to explore my bed. So... ever so gently I woke S up and told him there was a big spider on the bed right next to his foot. S got out of bed very carefully and quickly grabbed the vacuum cleaner along with the transformer while I kept an eye on our little intruder. Right away S sucked him up and said, "It's that time of year again." Sigh...

Even though our little bedroom friend is long and gone I still can't get that image out of my head... a spider crawling & roaming around on my bed where I sleep. Ugh! I'm definitely not sleeping tonight or should I say sleeping in.

wow what a scary experience!

i can imagine how hard it would be to get rid of thinking about that spider

i'm not a fan of large spiders either but thank goodness you saw it before getting into bed... imagine if you didn't it might be crawling all over you both the whole night through!

so what time is it of the year again in Belgium when spiders come out to play?

cheers and here's wishing you guys no more spidy encounters!
