I agree - in spite of how much I do love living alone, it does have it's unpleasantries. The biggest one that I've found (and yes, I am serious) is getting someone to kill/remove spiders for me. I have a horrible phobia of spiders. Although I don't enjoy other bugs, I can deal with them. And rats, snakes, and lizards are child's play. But I won't go within three feet of a spider if I can help it. If there's anyone nearby who would like to make themselves available to be called to come over to kill spiders, I can promise a reward everytime your services are used - say fresh brownies or something. cheers - elizabeth g. purtell (Lady Godiva)
