Green Spider

greenspider


This is a green spider that appeared on our porch recently. I had never seen one quite like it. Very interesting bristly legs. I wonder if any of you could identify it for us? We have packed away our bug books. We love bugs (and arachnids) - as long as they aren't ON us, or running amuck in the house. Very interesting critters.

As for the 'Queen Bee' - I've managed to get my boxes into the garage with the help of a great homeschool friend and a furniture dolly. I packed up my spare bedroom closet last night and added that to my stockpile as well. My realtor told me that the lady who pulled out of our last contract is still considering our house, and her divorce (which is what prevented her from buying it) goes through this week. Who knows, maybe she will write out another contract and make another offer? Only the Lord knows. The two people who came by over the weekend, and the one on Monday have not given any word towards purchasing the house... so I am waiting and praying... and packing still.

I have a wonderful homeschooling book I finished reading that I am going to review soon... and I have been reading my Old Schoolhouse Magazine and am impressed. I promised to review it as well. I am working on cleaning the house up and getting the first few weeks of school planned out so we can start by the 6th. Be sure to post a comment if you have any ideas about the spider. Have a super Wednesday. I'll see you tomorrow!

That's AWESOME, SHERI! Thanks!!! A cat-like spider! Two of my favorite little creatures rolled in to one. I'll have to go tell the kids!

This is so funny. Just yesterday my 6 year old and I found this green spider in our yard. I also homeschool so it soon became our study. The first time I've ever seen this one. It also has white stripes on its body, Right ????

I actually am not sure about the white stripes. I have seen a ton of these since the one pictured here. I guess once you know what they are, you tend to notice them more. :)
