Not a good view.

I have always wanted a house with a cathedral ceiling. Until now, when I have a house with a cathedral ceiling.  My computer is in the loft area, right next to the wall that over looks the living room.  I don't look down, but I do look out and I don't like the view.  

The &*%^&& beetles and box elder bugs are back and out of reach.  We have sucked them up with the Dyson, but they just keep coming back.  We had a bit of frost Monday am and there were plenty of dead ones right outside the door.  Today it was 60 and the all seem to have reincarnated. It takes a tactical maneuver just to get in the front door.  You must first kick the door and then stomp on as many as you can before you go in.  It really take a team effort.

Then there is all this dangly stuff. I would say it might be a cobweb or two, but if I had cobwebs, I would have spiders and if I had spiders then I wouldn't have &*%^&& beetles and box elder bugs. 

I may have to rethink the whole cathedral ceiling.  I can't even change a light bulb without a ladder.  Amazingly enough, I don't have an indoor one of those.

BTW did anyone else gasp when they opened their 401k statements this month.  I wasn't going to do it, but morbid curiosity got the best of me.  The sad things is, this is from before the crash last week.  Jeez,  I can't wait until 4th qtr.
