SCORPION!!!!!!!

It didn't take long.  You KNOW how much I abhor these guys.  I'm pretty sure the neighbor down the street heard me screaming when I noticed this guy in my rear view mirror as I was combing my hair.  I will never go in there again without looking first.

Yes, he's in a million pieces right now and in the trash.  Here's the REAL scary part.  He's at the very top of a very high ceiling.  I was afraid he would fall down on my head when I went to smash him.  I'm pretty sure that would result in a house sale.

I tried to calm my nerves as the sun came up casting a beautiful yellow glow over the dessert, cactus and palo verde trees to be exact.  I can hear a hooty owl and doves calling in the distance.

The morning was spent waiting around for the moving crew from the furniture store.  My new bed frame was delivered and quickly set up.  I love it ... and now my pillows don't end up on the floor every morning.  They rather stick to the headboard and I actually got some sleep.

As soon as that was done, the Chance family and I headed off to a new-to-us theatre fairly close to the house.  Okay, it's 15 miles, but whose counting!  The movie I really wanted to see was Doolittle.  The recliner seats didn't hurt one bit, once Patty and I figured out how to get them to move.  You can literally lay all the way back and nap if you wish!

Dan bought popcorn and a soda, along with a small popcorn for me.  It cost more dollars than the movie tickets, so it's better if you sneak something in.  I have to admit though .... that popcorn was delicious!!

The movie was cute with crazy good animation of animals the good Doctor lived with.  Wait for it to come out on television.  The next on my list of movies to see is Jumanji with The Rock!!  No, it's not just his muscles ... his movies are usually pretty entertaining.  

Back in the daylight we stopped in at Serial Grillers for our usual cobb salad.  I swear, it's the best salad I've ever had with loads of smoked bacon and ranch dressing.  I don't like ranch dressing, so it's saying something that I love it so much!!

That's it ... a lovely day in sunny Arizona where the temps have been in the 70's.  Oh ... one problem did raise it's ugly head yesterday.  I discovered the dryer vent has become disconnected underneath the house.  Man oh man I'm not looking forward to fixing that.  There's loads of creepy crawlies under there with very little room to maneuver.  I've going to have Patty or Dan stand by with their phone at the ready to call 911 when I have the panic attack I see coming.

In the meantime, I'll try to enjoy this beautiful desert sunset and practice my breathing/meditation/calm exercises so I can gear up for creepy and scary!!
