A snake!!!

Met Chelsey and Colby for dinner last night, since I hadn't seen them in days... Afterwards I ran to the grocery store for items to make a big pan of potatoes, for work today. On my way home Chelsey calls and says MOM, guess what? My heart skips a beat because of the tone of her voice....we just killed a giant snake at the house. She tells me all about it and we hang up. Then Colby calls MOM, we just killed a giant snake in front of the house. I ask HOW did you kill it? Well...with the shot gun of course. I ask if Danny knows. YES Mom, he knows... I arrive home to a Trembling Chelsey and Colby has gone after gas. She wants me to see it, so we walk behind the garage and it's not there. She calls Colby...."ten or so foot from the storage building" so we get on the Kubota and can't find it. We are both a little nervous at this point. She decides he means the building, not the garage, so we head up the hill to snake hunt. We do not see it. Chelsey is beyond having a fit and I must admit....if it has no head, where the HECK is it? While we are parked by a bunch of trees, a bug flies into the Kubota and hits her, she about jumps on top of me! We finally find the snake and I run over it. It MOVES and she is in panic mode by now so we drive back down the hill and go into the house....giant black snake, made a sissy out of us both!

Glad it's Friday.....Danny had to be at work at midnight, road construction on 75, and he is not home yet....and he has to work today. He'll be exhausted! Hope he doesn't have to work tomorrow, we have a wedding to attend, right Karen?

Have a great day all!
