Kitchen Demo

Let me start by saying...

I HATE BLACK WIDOWS!

I found this big bad momma when I went to pull the garbage disposal. She was (yes, was - she's dead dead dead now - better her than me!) probably the biggest I'd ever seen. Her abdomen was about 1/2 inch around... "Honey?!?! Get me the ShopVac™ will ya?!?"

Kitchen demo is done - now we wait for plumbing. These pics show a more accurate view of the filth and grime that existed here. Also, when we pulled the last of the cabinets, we discovered some, how should I put this... Creative wiring...

Thank christ that widow pic won't open. I'll take your word for it.

For a second there I thought the creative wiring was some california snake. Hard wired even.

That spider is huge... We had them all over my childhood home, and that looks bigger than usual. Eek.

Mental note to self....Never ever move to CA due to very large spider. *Shiver*. You can keep that and the rats in the trees.....yes you can.
