1. This should make you laugh, about jumping spiders.

Our first home was haunted, possessed or whatever you want to call it, so we thought.

There were so many spiders and they would chase us out of the room, or if we noticed them and I told my husband to get it out, the spiders would take off or jump at you.

One day around Christmas, I had a stuffed Grinch on the staircase, and I spotted a spider dropping down from the ceiling, I told my husband hurry get him...then the spider started running on the banister toward the grinch, but stopped and looked at us. My husband was scared, but I yelled hurry he's going to go in the grinch's pocket!

That spider puffed up for a second then booked it right into the grinch's pocket.

We put the house up for sale, and moved.
We Crack up about it almost thirty years later.
