It is HOT and HUMID. When it is 75 degrees at 6:00 a.m. you know you are in for a hot one. The humidity must be off the chart. I just got back from my walk and turned the a/c 5 degrees cooler and ripped off my t-shirt, shorts and shoes and socks. I know you don't like ugly mental pictures so early in the morning, but I am sitting here in my underwear with perspiration running down my whole body.
Well, enough of that description and on to the snake. I especially wanted to remember to tell you about the snake because I know how you love snakes, Lizzie. I was walking along lost in the story I am listening to on my iPod and happened to look down and nearly stepped on a small copperhead snake. I generally walk fast, but when I saw the snake, I hopped over it and I believe I REALLY walked fast. It was part way on the road and part in the grass. I am not terrified by snakes, but I do steer clear of them when I see them. On my way back I was very vigilant in the area I had seen the snake, but I saw a car had run over it when it got slithered further in the road.
Hope you all have a great day. Love you my little sisters.

Ok... I just posted a comment and it went away!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, MSN said it is 89 degrees there you must be completely in the buff by now!
So much for the snake.
I know I will never walk your streets again, Lori - not with all those wild snakes running loose.

PS I'm kind of liking the "Searcher" name now!
Nice picture for the mind's eye there, Lori. Again, our sweet mother comes to mind. lol
ReplyDeleteI would have felt guilty for not helping the snake into the grass before a car ran over it. Not that you should feel the tiniest bit guilty. But really....
From this day forward you will always be the Searcher. It sounds spy like. Dum te dum dum
ReplyDeleteAm I ever pissed. Lost another big ole long comment and now I am too sleepy to redo it.
ReplyDeleteShort version -
I have turned into Mom, sitting around in underwear with my body bag sagging. She is probably having fun laughing at me. When I go to the thrift store I can hear her in my mind saying "Do you think you are too good to wear 2nd hand clothes?" Now I understand. I love you Mom and you too sisters.
BTW I saved a turtle yesterday so no guilt over the snake
