EWEEE GROSE!

Last night I was having a hard time sleeping. I had slept for a few hours then woke up. after about an hour and a half I heard this weird scratching noise down beside James. He has been known to scratch the bed in his sleep and it sounds like a mouse under the bed. Well this was different, so I leaned over there and saw a dark object. When i turned on the light it revealed a sewer roach about 2 inches plus the wings! The light woke James and I told him to get it quick. Well for some reason he went to the kitchen, he thought I was crazy. I was watching the roach and it went under the bed and onto the blanket. this is where I lost it and James started to doubt me. It then reappeared in my bed! So much for falling back to sleep any time soon. I had the heebie geebiees. Thoughts of giant roaches eating my children kept entering my mind. now I hope that by sharing this with you all you don't think that we are dirty or have a gross house, it just comes with the joys of my neighborhood. I'm just grateful it wasn't a scorpion!

Yikes! This story has sufficiently zapped my desire to come back to Arizona! We may have mice in Pittsburgh, but I haven't seen a roach in a year!

Oh my gosh! 2 inches and making enough noise to wake you up?!
That's enough to keep you awake for several nights! The question is - did it get killed?!
You're right. Having bugs literally comes with the territory. They're just here and we may not like it, but that's just the way it is...
