So, Lewis and I were playing on the floor yesterday and I look over to a spot in the room that I look at occasionally to make sure dead bugs haven't collected there and guess what I see . . . a lizard!
I immediately scoop up Lewis and he and I and Ruby run upstairs so the lizard wouldn't get us. I put Lewis in his bed so I can attempt to get rid of the thing. Dan's in the shower and wondering why I'm screaming like a little girl. The lizard was only 4 or 5 inches long but it was freaking me out that is was in the house. I try to get him in a tupperware container and failed numerous times. That thing was fast!! He would run around the container and eventually made his way under the couch. I was beginning to think I'd never find him again and would never be able to sit anywhere without the fear of a lizard crawling on me. Dan finally gets out of the shower and comes and gets the lizard in the container after a few tries and he puts it in the front yard. Dan wasn't fond of the reptile either and I'm sure if there was video of us trying to get it out of the house it would be a YouTube hit.
We thought we were in the clear once that was taken care of so we got Lewis and put him in the car so we could go eat dinner with Amanda Gaines. We open the garage door so I could put something in the mailbox before leaving and the darn lizard runs into the garage and under my car. Dan pulls the car out and I get the push broom and sweep the sucker out onto the driveway and yell at Dan to close the garage door. I'm sure he was just trying to cool off but I don't appreciate him invading my space!!! Hopefully he got the hint.
