**N** o insect or spider larger then a centimeter can exist in my house or I wont sleep. I’ve torn my house apart to find them and kill them **O** h, and you should see this 6’5" guy tip-toe to the bathroom with a large cockroach trapped in a paper towel to shove that thing in the toilet and flush it. Scares the hell out of me. **P** lenty would assume my cat would help but she’ll just chase them around then let them go. Only very rarely will she eat them. Where the killing spirit I ask you? ---

**K** azoos and funny hats for your party, I trust, **Osiris**? **L** et the partying begin. **M** any helpful homeowner tips posted while I was gone. **N** ot a big wallpaper fan myself, I hired pros to strip it in this house, then just painted the walls afterward. **O** f course, I didn’t actually get around to painting the trim at the same time (there’s a lot of it, the house was built in the '20s). **P** erhaps I’ll get around to it someday – I’ve only been in this house 13 years. ( **Q** uite exciting to contemplate **Watcher** wielding tools in a manly fashion – you can lay my vinyl floor any time, baby!) ---

**U** nusually wonderful outside today here in eastern PA - sunny 60 degrees plus. Just took my bike out for the first ride of spring. Is it spring yet? No, I guess not officially. Just wanted to check in & say hi and good morning to all. Especially the lovely **Twicks**. ---

**V** ery lovely day here – I spent a couple of hours raking out flower beds (any garden work is my idea of a good time) before pulling out a beach chair and settling in a sunny spot to read the paper.
