Two Pot

Today is diffinately a two pot day. The kids are back to school, the coffees brewin, I actually have a day at home. Time to tackle the thing I have dreaded for the last few months......the basement..... my least favorite place in the house. It is a full finished basement but it is very difficult to tell, since our teenager has his bedroom down there, and our family room is down there, were my two little men spend most of there time playing video games and trashing the place and making friends with the local bug population. It also boast a laundrey room, and litter boxes for three cats who have the run of the place. When asked who wears the pants in the family...well that would be the three cats and the dog...I venture down to the sty as little as possible (have an issue with bugs, I don't like them they don't like me)to clean the litter box and do laundry the last being the thing done least often. I confess I wait tell the 3 boys have run out of the briefs and socks, and theres not a panty to be found not even the old ones you wear for those few certain days during the month (ladies you know what I mean) Call me a procrastinater, call me a pig, call me what you wish. If you would see the size of the spiders I have seen down there you would truely understand. We bomb, we spray, I carry a large shoe, they just can't get the hint. Last night took the last bit of resolve I had, the spider I came face to face with and I literaly mean face to face was clearly bent on carrying me back to the web. Even when threatened with my sons size 13 shoe, he stood his ground. We faught he won.....I am dettermined to get that basement in order and get rid of every bug living or dead so I don't get the shit scared out of me everytime I go down there. So armed with my husdands fishing waders, my sons baseball bat and an industrial can of Eight Legged Freak Be Gone, I bravely venture forth, ok not so bravely venture forth.......Sis do me a favor call me in a few hours if I don't answer call the National Gaurd, call the Pentagon, call the Center for UFO Affairs, its way beyond the Orkin Man.
