THE WEEKEND EDIT FALL FAVORITES + A SPIDER

September 4, 2021

My youngest son called from school and said he might move home because of a spider. Yes, apparently there was a Wolf spider in his bedding. So I googled it and found too many details.  He had a plan: either sleep on the couch until the first freeze or move back home. That last sentence tells you how much he fears this little creature.

Neither was an option since we were paying rent for his basement bedroom (with egress). #realtormom

Thankfully, one of his roommate’s moms was in town and she helped Evan vacuum, washed his sheets and purchased bug spray. Evan’s reaction to a spider was similar to my phobia.

Apparently, there was a hole in the wall which gave the spider safe passage to a rental house filled with empty pizza boxes and Gatorade. #wink

The hole in the wall is now covered with duct tape. ;0)

Taking suggestions on the spider invasion.

    Occasionally I see olive buckets at hobby lobby. I got mine online at Decor Steals when available.

    Hi Laura, love your posts…all of them!!!…the spider post, not so much…ekk!!! I hate spiders too!!! Hope your son gets that situation resolved quickly.
    Anyways, regarding the Olive bucket check out Pottery Barn’s website as the had them on cllearance-just like your picture-for about 40 bucks during the summer. I purchased one, this summer-also like your picture- at Home Goods, same price, but I’m sure they are gone! Have a wonderful (Labor Day) weekend!
    Blessings, Joyce
