I woke up begging Havilah to pull glass out of my back, but she responds that nothing is there and hands the maglite back to me. About that time she starts screaming, OW!!! I looked down to see the scorpion on the sheets, and so I smashed with the spine of the nearest book. Our German landlord gave us some ciggarettes to suck on the tobacco and put on the sting. It amazingly worked.
We need to say thanks to mr barry burton for putting our blog up and fixing it. So gracias barry. We resized the pictures to a manageable size. Let us know if you have any suggestions.
Yikes…I will NEVER complain about roaches again!! Or fire ants for that matter. So cool to hear all that you are learning. Realize too that many of us back here in the U.S. are “learning” right along with you, so post as often as you can. I love you….poppa Sciacca
Wow, Hava - your finger has really gotten beefy! ;-P That is crazy though, for real. That thing is huge! Its stinger looks like Captain Hook’s prosthetic hand. i think i would rather take my chances with the fireants too. You guys are brave…and for that, i commend you. Love you!

When mom saw the “scorpini” (that’s an Italian dish made with the arachnid that chewed your backside) she thought maybe we shouldn’t be coming to visit in December. But, (and that’s the operative word here) I think SHE’S got a brown recluse bite going that we have to check. Maybe Ivan washed a few of the “itsy bitsy spiders down the water spout” right into OUR bed!
Muy grande escorpion en la cama!
I couldn’t sleep and I thought maybe Brett and Hav posted some new pictures on the blog, so I ran down and turned the computer on and saw the scorpion that bitt my baby! Now, I know I won’t be able to go to sleep! I hope you are alright Bretter,
