I had two large spiders that inhabited my front porch. Until recently, we had a gentlemen’s agreement – they could live on my porch and eat up all the flies and bees but they must never enter the house.
That rule was broken this past week and I had the terrible job of “getting rid” of them. I did it as painless as possible, with a stick that I gingerly used in a twirling motion like I was making spider-web cotton candy.
I felt like I was dispatched to get rid of a dragon or something, but for the welfare and sanity of suedeheadica, I had to do it!
