Something funny in all of this

While Hannah was raging, Alex and Shauna grabbed the dog and ran outside (they have been trained to do this, for their safety). They ended up in front of the garage as the two police cars and ambulance pulled up. Apparently a little girl who is Shauna's age rode past twice on her bike. The second time she stopped and saw Shauna, even though Shauna tried to hide behind a car so she wouldn't see her! She came up the driveway and asked Shauna what was happening. Shauna was embarrassed to tell her the truth, so she had to think on the fly. She told her that a lizard had gotten into our house and we had to call the police and medics to get it out! LOL! She said the first thing that popped into her head was that a frog had gotten in, but at the last second, she changed it to lizard. I'm sure this is ALL OVER the neighborhood by now (that's how it is here) and everyone probably thinks we are nuts for calling emergency services for a lizard! On the bright side, at least they don't think we are nuts for calling them for a frog!

LOLOLOL!! Go Shauna! That is a riot. I know your neighbors are talking. It will probably be a topic at the next HOA meeting!

You are SO right. We will probably get a letter in the mail telling us that calling emergency services for a lizard is bringing down the property values of those around us!

I'm just glad to know that we're not the only people bringing down property values! Did you ever think you had that much power??
