spiders!

eek, i almost don't even wanna write about them, i'm feeling that icky. And I have now decided that most jobs around the house are now 'man's work' and therefore need to be left for R to sort out when he's home from work. Today, i decided that i was going to have a big spring clean. This lasted as long as it took for me to hose down two chairs on the front porch and find two redback spiders. One shower and intense shampoo later, clothes i was wearing straight in the wash, a google of all the spiders i'm likely to find in western australia and i'm still feeling icky icky icky. I did however manage to go back and finish hosing down the chairs and table. How brave am i.
