Oh My Goodness!

I was sitting in the house working on some of my student teaching things when I heard my mom call for me. She needed me to get her a towel for the dog. I went outside and I saw something crawl around a corner. I looked around the corner and didn't see anything so I decided to look behind the water gutter on the house. When I did I saw a lizard, that kind of looked like a snake. It was a blue tail lizard, but I did some research on it and it is really a blue tail skink. Here is what it looked like...


Well after I freaked out about the lizard which was not that scary. I saw a spider that freaked me out! The picture is below so that you can see it. I screamed and told mom to get something to kill it. She sprayed it with insect killer but it just started moving toward her. I screamed again and ran backwards. So mom called the bug man and she told him about it. He said that she needed to get some windex and spray it with that, but they are very aggressive so be careful. Mom started spraying it and it jumped off the window towards her and once again i screamed. Mom grabbed a shovel and started smacking the crap out of it! It was on the ground so it was blending in and we could not find it. Then mom found it killed it and shoveled it up. She then took it out to the drive way to make sure it was dead. Mom asked me to go get a jar. I couldn't find one so I got a tupperware bowl for her. So the spider is dead... Luckily I video recorded so you can watch it. I thought it might have been mom's last day if the spider really jumped towards her.


This is the spider dead in the tupperware bowl! Thank God!


Here is the video, I am sure you will get a good laugh out of it because I know that we did!
