We're outside this afternoon, playing in the yard having a nice time. Todd was playing baseball w/ Jack and I threw Riley in her little car, grabbed a shovel and started to pick up poops. We're watching Calloway (my in-laws dog) for two weeks while they are on vacation so we have extra poops in our yard. Riley and I went into the backyard to pick some up.
After doing our duty we stayed in the backyard for a little to play. Jack joined us and the two of them hopped in the sandbox to play for a little. Jack's sandbox is FILLED w/ trucks: big, small, medium, you name it. They are gross, filled w/ sand and crusty from the rain and elements. I was in the process of taking some of them out of the sandbox when I see a little brown lizard. You know- the green slimy kind that run all over in the summertime but turn brown sometimes, that kind.
Before I could shoo it away it proceeded to run like a roadrunner on crack through the sand onto Riley, up the front of her jacket, on her face and over her head and then popped off. GROSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I feel nauseous writing it. I screamed and picked her up and wiped her off. I guess I thought I could wipe the lizard cooties off, whatever they may be.
So- our little backyard adventure turned yucky- thank God Miss Priss didn't know the difference!!
Until next time...
