Changes or maybe not…

I began this nice long post on the changes we are going through as we move and how hard it is at times but day dreaming got the better of me and as I was gazing out the front window I decided to go kick over these that are growing fervently in my front yard because of all the rain we’ve had.

On my way to kick over the friendly mushrooms this guy went whizzing by me.  Now I tried and I mean really hard, not to let a word slip, but slip it did.  Rather loudly too because, well, I was scared and well,  he almost slithered across my foot.

Of course after the burst of fleshliness I screamed, “Get the camera!”

I needed to document the affair of course.  Notice anything except for my “barely surviving the Florida heat” bushes?

Yea, there HE is.

At least a good three feet long.  And good for mice control and all that.  I’m sure The Pioneer Woman would be happy, but me?????……some things I would just rather not see up close unless behind a solid sheet of glass.

And then he became quite friendly and actually posed for me.

“Hello Mr. Scary Black Snake…..how are you today?”

“Fine thank you.   You scared me too.”

And then lo and behold the sucker stuck his tongue out at me.

Go camera!!!  I think I’m ready to go watch “KICK” now!!!!  Watch out Angelina Jolie!

And just so you know we have lots of wildlife in our front yard here is Mr. Spider.

Who needs the zoo?
