TARANTULA!!

Yesterday was a bad day-I totally fell off the wagon. I did not work out, walk, or even come close to eating right at dinner time-we had cook-at-home pizza and cookies. Bad Michelle!

Sunday night's walk, however, was interesting. Rob and I went out, taking the girls (our dogs) with us, two each trip (we have four dogs). It had rained Saturday, so there were still some puddles that the sun hadn't dried, and the girls had fun hopping over them.

Suddenly, Rob yells "get her away, get her away!!!" I pull Katie to me (she's the littlest one, a Chiuauah/Jack Russel Mix), trying to figure out what he was talking about. Turns out what I thought was a pile of wet leaves in the dark (it was about 8:30 pm byt his time) was actually a rather large tarantula walking along the edge of the curb-right where Katie was walking. Now, I know she's a little dog, but that thing was huge-as big as her head! I'd never seen a tarantula before outside of a cage, so it gave me the creeps.

Needles to say, we will now be taking flashlights with us on our walks, despite the streetlights that give ample illumination in our neighborhood. We're also taking those Off Clip-On things. There's too many gnat swarms!

Tonight I will be good! We're having a healthy dinner and we're going walking. I wasn't able to work out this morning because I had court, but I will absolutely be working out tomorrow morning!

Until next time friends. Have a great day!
