That's the agreement I have with ALL spiders that come into the house. They can live in the house, but they have to survive the vacuum cleaner. If they survive the vacuum cleaner, then they have to LIVE in the vacuum cleaner for the rest of their days or be revacuumed.
For all you cat lovers on this thread, don't your cats hunt spiders? I am not a cat person, but every once in awhile a make an agreement with our barn cats that they can have a reprieve in our house if they promise to catch all of the spiders.
My cat Shade eats spiders...she caught a Texas Yellow Garden spider and she killed and was ripping
That is not a spider. That is a prop in a horror story. Or a dinosaur. My sanity would not survive if that showed up in my house.
I would lose my mind!0 -

This is what they look like:
That is a wicked cool spider. Are they poisonous or are they like huntsmans, preferring to hang out in odd places to startle you?0 -

They are venomous but their bite is no more harmful to a healthy adult human than a bee sting. If your immune system is compromised, you should use extreme caution. They only bite if they feel harassed.
They usually build webs in open, sunny spaces where there is little to no wind and will move if their web is consistently disturbed. Generally, webs are constructed or repaired at night but these spiders are most active during the day.
My MAIN problem with them is their webs are STRONG and HUGE. They say that some span as far as 2 feet in diameter, but I've seen one stretching 4 feet across the pathways at work. The web patterns are beautiful in their complexity, and I always feel badly about destroying them, but my primary duty is maintaining the safety of the campus. That means teaching the spiders to build their webs somewhere else.0 -
I have a lot of leave left and not too much to do at work today, so decided to take the day off. I was going to email my boss, but then I just decided I'd put it in.my calender and pretend it'd been there all along!0
-
Okay, no one really took me up on our daily motivation, but I am going to go ahead and share progress anyway.
Steps: 19, 903 (vs. 25K goal) due to rain and help at barn, as I didn't do quite as much walking as I might normally due as I had help. +
Never got to my run. I had forgotten my shoes so had clothes but no shoes at barn. So had to come home (kiss of death) and try to motivate myself. Well, after eating, and dealing with a washing machine mess (standing water due to clogged filter from washing bathroom mat that disintegrated) it was 10:00. I just couldn't get myself out then. +
No alcohol +
Did not work on dissertation. For the above reasons.
So not great. Today:
Flying to Dallas on a 6:40 flight (hence being up so early) for a meeting. So... this is really going to be a challenge but going to try to:
Walk 10K
Run 1 hour
Work in dissertation (I will use the plane trip to read some articles I have lined up for my literature review)
No alcohol (this will also be challenging as I am going out with some of my team for 'drinks' as I am in Dallas and we don't see each other much.
So...on 3 hours sleep off I go. I'll probably check in at airport, etc. Have a great day all.

@Susieq_1994 you're exactly two days younger than my second youngest brother! He'll be 21 on the 6th and then my youngest brother will be 18 on October 7th! And thanks for the recipe thread I've never been much of a cook but I've really wanted to try lately!! Oh and your wedding dress was stunning!

Haha not sure if anyone has answered this...if you are not from/in UK it probably sounds strange. It's soft scoop whipped ice cream in a cone with a chocolate flake. Also known as a 99 from when they used to cost 99 pence (sterling). They are served from an ice cream van. Reminds me of childhood!
I seen Orange post about clotted cream & was wondering is that more of a whipped cream, cottage cheese, or yogurt?
Sounds yummy to me! So is it used mostly on ice creams?
Yum that all sounds so good. I'll take an order of the plum crumble but maybe with apples instead & extra, extra, extra crumble:D.

Omg, I'll take one too! Yum!

Definitely let us all know if/when you do...there are quite a few Fitbit users added already.0 -

Neither do I. We can be clueless and judged together, don't worry.

You are braver than me, my friend.....if there is a spider in my living room, I just leave.....I don't need to use the living room that badly, I have a bedroom I can hang out in, lol.
I would have to kill it. If you left and came back, how would you know where it is? It could totally jump out at you. Better to get them when you can see them!
That's how I feel...I would always be wondering where he went...like he could crawl up my leg at any point! Eee!!!
Last summer, our neighbor's son had a tick on him after playing outside all day. The mom went to get tweezers to get the tick off and when she came back, her son said it was gone....he had flicked it off (it obviously wasn't fully attached to his skin yet)!!!! I would FREAK if there was a tick just chillin' somewhere in my house. Ticks are disgusting! 0 -

- No sticky notes were written

- 30 minutes minimum of exercise (again)
- Housework (Please, self, for the love of God, clean this house...)
- Write those sticky notes to post around the house
- Weigh in "officially", since it's Monday!
- Try to forget that I have neighbors and climb the stairs from the ground floor to my apartment at least once (4 storeys, so 3 flights of stairs)
- Stick to my calorie goal
- Drink at least 2 liters of water (Around eight cups)

@TigerNY128 I hope you have a wonderful vacation!
@Italian_Buju I'm sorry that you're feeling so awful--I hope you'll be able to resolve whatever is happening and let up on the grief bacon soon.
@ Everybody else... I feel like I'm the only one around here who loves spiders... Poor spiders. *sigh*
And I would totally eat that deluxe clotted cream covered ice cream @KrisiAnnH All it needs is that chocolate chip cookie cone in cup form to be perfect.
The name clotted cream doesn't sound icky to me, it sounds like something so luxuriously thick that a dollop of it is like a big clot of awesomeness. That's what it sounds like to me, anyway.

Well, I'm hoping to lose it early--my deficit is for 400 grams lost per week, so I can lose 1.6 kilos (around 4 pounds) per month, theoretically. However, since I've been struggling, I have extra time to account for times that I'm over goal. For example, 3 days this week had no deficit at all, but at least I kept to maintenance!
That's why he specifically made the goal 65 kilos, so it wouldn't be a huge struggle to get there, considering my current weight and state of motivation--my low weight is actually around 61 kilos, but there's no way I can do THAT by my birthday.
I'm off to weigh in now! I hope it'll be a good one.0 -

Well. Just got back from the doctors. Saw a different doctor this time. He said NO carbs. Not even yogurt, he said if I don't lose weight on this, we have a serious problem.
