Round 2, in less then a year, at the Duecker house

Well I do have some terrible news....last Tuesday I came home from work at about midnight. (I am now an HEB trainer, which is a blast, but Checker Skills class is held from 5p-11p, and this one was in Kerrville.) Anyways, I walked into my kitchen to find a....yep, you guessed it, snake. It was curled up on top of the window, not the window sill, but the part that you would move up and down.

Luckily I was still on the phone, so I was screaming at Jared to, "Give me a plan! Give me a plan! I can execute the plan, but I NEED a plan." I went and woke up dad and continued to demand a plan from him also. His best idea was to poke it with a cane. Ummm....NO!!!

My best plan was to call my mom. Well, it was a good plan because she showed up, fast, with Bobby and a hoe in tow. Bobby is very calm, so he pretty much just walked over to the window, took the screen off the other window and pushed it out. I was carring my Chipmonk 22 and offering to 'SHOOT IT' every few seconds. After Bobby smashed it with mom's hoe, I felt safe enough to shoot it from the french doors (yes, I was still techinally standing in the kitchen).

No surprise, but I went home to mom's after all the excitement. I guess I have taken this episode better then the last, because I have slept in my bed since then. Maybe slept is a bad word, but I have stayed in my own bed.
