Arachnophobia

The weather has cooled off drastically the past two weeks with

 the monsoon season bringing summer thunderstorms.  Since 

Arizona has an average of 320 sunny days, I never complain

about a little rain. It's refreshing after the extreme heat we 
normally have this time of year.   


Sunday we had a balmy 87 degrees and I enjoyed every minute
of it. My doggies liked it too.  I took them out for a little walk 
and found a dead brown spider on my porch.   Eek! Creepy!!
I've never seen one before.  

I didn't get a photo of it before it blew away in the wind, so
I found these two similar photo's.   

Good thing it was dead and probably because dear hubby 
sprayed for bugs recently.  The Arizona brown spider is similar
to the brown recluse and thankfully I didn't encounter a live one.  

I had to laugh today as I saw a woman driving down the road  
wearing the 'Ove' Gloves.  Yes, the steering wheel can be a
little hot to handle when the temperature rises to 105 degrees.

My week is dedicated to catching up on work, so there won't
be any sewing going on.  Such a sad pitiful story I know.  My 
sewing machine is back in the shop anyway.  I'm certain she
needed a serious spa treatment.


I hope you are enjoying your summer and have a creative week.
