Bugs in Hell.

I think there must be insects in hell. Lots of them. Which is one of the reasons I don't want to go there. Biting, swarming insects are my idea of hell. You might ask what is it with me and insects? What have they done to me? Specifically what have they done to me since P. left? LOTS.

*Jumped out of my spice cabinet at scared the you know what out of me.
* Swam in my shower.
*Crawled out of my sink.
*Sent me to the ER.
*Invaded my front hall.

We just had a termite swarm. Can I just say it was disgusting and vile? And we are under termite protection. I think I am going to have permanent brain damage from my Raid usage and now my front porch has holes in it with termite poison. We're still waiting to find out on the structural damage angle. Those holes are not going to do anything for the resale value of my home. Grrr.

Thank goodness for my neighbor who had the Raid and for leftovers and corndogs for dinner. Because I can't both cook and deal with invasions at the same time.

M, Having fought Ants (Terminix man was just here this AM for the 6th (yes 6th) time since March) for that have ravaged my house all winter. I too feel my brain is rattling from all the insect spray. However having bugs jump out of cupboards is in the Horror Picturs category. My heart goes out to you as you did not "wipe it off the floor", your distaste of bugs. Now spiders I can handle. I just smashed a longlegged one between my hands that was dangling from the bathroom ceiling that my angel let me see before I walked into it just above eye level.Yes, heaven is definitely the place I want to go!! ;->

I think you are right about bugs in Hell...why else would the bible mention the plague of crickets upon crops? Though obviously the midatlantic harbours insects they do not have fire ants as you have pointed out in your blog previously:) READ: Move back!!
