"HAPPY THANKSGIVING!"

Saturday, November 14, 2009 | A Funny story
I have to write this as it was comical yet I proved to myself I can do it! Last night when I went into my bathroom to brush my teeth I saw in the mirror the reflection of a centipede on the ceiling. I wanted to scream! I've seen ones in the house before but this one was HUGE - about 3 inches long and fat. I immediately thought that if the ex was around to call him or call my son. That thought lasted a minute and decided 'I can do it myself'! I got my hair spray out and sprayed it. It stopped him for a few seconds but then he started moving again! Damn!!!! Took my deodorant out and sprayed it. I guess it didn't like Arid XXX LOL because it worked and it died. Fell to the floor, picked the dead sucker up with toliet paper, and flushed it away! I did it! I did it!

    Good morning, oh mighty bug hunter. For me it's the spiders...I don't know what I would do if I had to deal with giant centipedes too.

    I use my vacuum cleaner and then put an old sock over the hose with a rubber band so it can't get back out

    Geo - great idea but sounds like a lot a work. I didn't want to leave him alone to disappear if I went for the vacuum or bug spray so zapped the sucker with deodorant! It was funny today when I saw the outline of its body on my bathroom floor that is carpeted!

This was a good day for me. When I took my dog out this morning he made me laugh so hard! When he went to poop he stood up with a leaf stuck to his butt and nose! Then I noticed that he was bitting his nails. Jokingy, I typed 'dog bitting nails' on the net and I couldn't believe there were many sites listed. Then looking closer I see that all dogs and cats can do this but in Maltese dogs it is very common. Jeter is a Maltese! It could be a habit or a fungus. Now I have to check his freckin' paws! I swear if it wasn't for him I would completly lose it!!!!

If it's not one thing it's another! Mood

Glad I made it through this rainy Saturday night not getting pissed at all the ex's actions. Even though I'm fully aware of their games  I've become very good at ignoring them all. I know the best thing for me is to move away from here but it really is not a good time now. My doctor put me on high blood pressure pills on Fri. If it's not one thing it's another! He put me on a very low dose and I hope to not have to take it forever. I'm mad that I allowed myself to get so aggravated and reach this point. I'm trying - REALLY TRYING - but I can't get rid of that sign on my butt that says 'kick me'. I also tried having conversations with guys but am also going to give up on that for now. It's causing me more stress! You name it - I've met it. The married one, the one with hair in the ears so long, to name a few, and the more recent one - after 1 week a marriage proposal - got to be freckin' kidding me!!! Oh, well - this too will pass for I will ignore~
