You know they say....

'Do something everyday that scares you'? 

well I can tick that box today already.

sheesh.

I should point out I dont like bugs. at all. even slightly.

Heres how to get scared....

Take one macro lens outside. Take pictures of flowers. or try to, with the wind thats blowing.

notice bee. aw, we like bees.

notice strange bug near pond. ugh. pluck up courage to take picture...CLOSE up picture!!

realise there are four of them. back away.

Notice all top leaves have gone from all the climbing roses. leaves that were there two days ago youre sure of it. 

uh-oh.

Recall last year discovering the hideous bugs responsible, and how you freaked out. 

Tell yourself not to even think of looking.

Look.

shriek upon finding one of the bug things that look like caterpillars but arent. {learnt that last year}

 Dare yourself to lean in close amongst the tall stems to try to take his picture better.

shudder.

then.

Look up directly above your head.....

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!!!

I itch. I have change my clothes, I still itch. I am shuddering at the photo so much I dont think its staying on my hard drive.... 

I sprayed them BTW with whatever was in the shed.
