Packing, Moving, Killing Bugs...

We spent several days last week going between Holly's and Aaron-the-son-in-law's OLD house...and their NEW one.

There was a lot of packing up, loading the back of our vehicles, driving to the new house, unloading the boxes...and putting everything away.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

I just want her kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom all put-together before the baby comes. Aaron or others can do the rest...I just want those things done for her. Sooner, rather than later.

So the other day, Holly had a doctor's appointment. After she left, Joshua and I ran to the grocery real fast.

It would be a huge understatement to say that my house is in need of some attention. 

Joshua and I were breezing through the store like lightning when Holly called. She asked if we had left her house. I told her that we had. She said, "RATS! The furniture people were going to try and deliver our new furniture today, instead of waiting until Friday...because it was supposed to rain on Friday." I told her to call them back and tell them that Joshua and I could be there in 15 minutes.

And we were. 

But, on the way back to their house, Joshua said, "I killed several bugs at Holly's new house this morning." I said, "You DID? Where?" He said one in the hallway by the nursery...and one in the bathroom by the nursery.

EEEK!

I said, "well, what kind of bug? Big? Little? What color? Did it fly? Was it a spider?"

He said, "Well, the one in the bathroom was about the size of a small...ummmm...rodent. Yes, the size of a small rodent."

THE SIZE OF A SMALL RODENT.

Okaaaaaaaaaaay.

"And the one in the hallway...it was red."

RED?

Seriously?

We got back to their house, but we never found the "remains" of either bug.

In other news, Aaron contacted their bug-guy IMMEDIATELY.

"And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good." Genesis 1:24-25
