Ba---hum--bug


Each year I try to talk scott into putting up the tree near the end of Oct as soon as the weather changes :) It never works..... I usually want the tree up bc I love this season (as Ive said a million times before) but, this year is different!
I do not even WANT to put a tree up.... I still love the season... I still love Christmas.... I am not upset, not offended, not being a scrooge. I just have no desire to put a tree up- neither does Scottie-my-hottie! We might even skip the Christmas lights on the house!
So, if you come to my house do not go into shock ;

There will be no Christmas tree at the Taylor's this year!
Maybe next year :)............. 

Have a wonderfully blessed day!

I thought I was an Incubator

Oh my dearest 3 faithful readers, I would like to take a moment to ask you to reflect on the day I told the tall tale about the snake in the backyard... little did I know that I was really in danger....

The day after the snake incident I noticed a small bump on my wrist. I covered it with a bandage because it itched like crazy...... well, one day led to another and another and the small bump continued to grow and then it kinda took on a life of its own.....
I told my sister about the bite- my sister then felt a need to inform me that the same thing happened to someone she knew but, when they had their bite checked the Dr. discovered the spider had laid eggs in it so they had to do a minor surgery to remove it which left the poor fellow with a hole in his face.
ugh!
Well, needless to say... upon hearing this I panic and the thought of being a spider egg incubator made me ill. Up to this point I was reluctant to go to the Dr. but this story lit a fire under me and was exactly what I needed to hear to get my butt in gear, I decided to have it checked.

Of course, knowing me- I made a joke of the whole thing and asked the Dr. for an ultrasound on my arm to see of there were in fact babies......... I am happy to say, NO EGGS! that means, NO spider babies living inside of me! :) yay!

It turns out that on the day I was battling for my life with the snake a spider had crawled in my glove and was also trying to kill me :0

I told you guys!

There are dangers in my back yard!

Please pray for my arm to heal. It is disgusting!


-Have a wonderfully blessed day!
