lizard #2

this is the 2nd lizard that we have had inside our house.

i thought that the 1st lizard came in because we had our sliding door open a lot.

but since it's still really hot here and we haven't had the door open...

i just don't know.

i heard something behind the curtain and thought,

please tell me that was a cricket.

(even though the sound was pretty loud).

nope.

it was another lizard.

ryder was in bed, and ryan was at school.

i knew i had to get the thing OUTside because 

i don't think i could sleep knowing that there was a lizard roaming around.

so i ended up catching it under a bowl and i didn't want it to get out so i put a heavy book on it.

i almost left it that way for tyler to take care of.

but then i had a great idea to slip some newspaper under it without lifting the bowl.

and then i slid it across the floor by the door.

and then i threw the whole thing outside as fast as i could.

success.

the lizard was OUTside!

and now i know that lizards came sneak in our house through a little vent hole in the bottom of the door.

which i will be covering so we don't get anymore lizards!

and this experience was traumatic.

i am just glad that ryan wasn't around this time to see me freaking out and running around like crazy.
