Okay, I know you have all heard of Freaky Friday, but today is freaky Monday for me. Seriously!! EEK! It all started when I woke up early to create a little treat bag for my friend who had a birthday yesterday. She was driving home with her kids yesterday, and I knew I would see her today (I am babysitting her kids all this week), so I wanted to have something for her today. I saw these cutest little bags on Cami's blog, and so I made one for her. I needed to run to the store to fill it with some chocolate (I had lip gloss, and gum already in it), so I ran out the door.
I am a confessed arachnophobiac (is that a word) - ew I hate spiders. When I was outside locking up, there was a HUGE spider on my wall of my house (ironic since the bug sprayer guys were here just last week). When I say huge, I mean HUGE! I live in the desert and this thing was brown, hairy and his butt part was like dime sized huge. EW! Anyway, I decided I needed to "take care of it" so I ran back inside and got one of my heavy heeled Dansko clogs and came back out. I smashed it once and then it was on the ground with legs all bent out of shape and still moving, so I smashed it again and guts splattered. EW! Anyway, I have a mega weak tummy right now because of the pregnancy so I started to *gag* and then dry heave. YUCK! I dropped the shoe in the door and then locked up and went on my way. So I am shopping around the store and what song comes on their normally nice elevator music station -- Ghostbusters theme -- IN AUGUST! Seriously -- creepy! I finish shopping, come home and relate the story to M and he laughs and I start to rinse the guts off the heel of my shoe and the *gagging* and *heaving* begin again. At this point M thinks it is hilarious because it is just a spider smushed, but oh well. Anyway, I learned my lesson, spider crushing is only for my hubby from this point on. What a weird freaky morning!!! Hope you are having a better start to your day today!! Happy Monday!

Oh, and I would be so totally freaked out about the spider. Ewww!
I love this bag! I've seen a few of these now and still haven't tried my hand at it, but I'll have to soon cause this one is just adorable. I know your friend will love it!
I came for a visit from the SCS blog thread.
thanks for sharing!
