Giving Thanks
This morning was hectic. I forgot to set my alarm and I needed to be at the Police Department before 10:00 a.m. I needed to get two sets of fingerprints to return to work. I also had to go to a lab to take a drug test (also for returning to work).
I returned home around 10:15 a.m. I had left the house around 7:50 a.m. So I was tired and sneezing (I didn't want to take any medicines this morning since I was taking a drug test). Anyway... when I started to go up the stairs I notice 4 little clumps hanging in front of the stair railing. I eased closer to look... and there was an intricate spiderweb attached from the stair railing to a blanket on the back of a chair.
I called "the hubby" down to look at it. The web was so intricate and so delicate I was amazed that a spider could create something so quickly. I mean I went to bed at 2:00 a.m.... and I certainly didn't see any spiderweb then
I tried to get a picture of it.... but it was so delicate it didn't really show up. So then I tried placing a dark folder behind it... but it still didn't really work. Quite possibly because I was shaking and looking around for a huge ass spider.
I couldn't tell if those were bugs he had captured during the night and wrapped up for a snack later, or if they were egg sacks. All I know is that the second lump was moving and so instead of saying "Hey little spider, thanks for catching those pesky bugs"... I grabbed a broom and swept the web and it's contents up and then took it outside and wiped it on the ground. I don't know if the thing moving was the spider... or a snack trying to get away.
So now... I can't even sit in that chair because I'm afraid there is a pissed off spider somewhere nearby.
