On Sunday last I was at home alone with the kids. Keith (the hubby)had gone to a football game. it had just gotten dark, and I was preparing the kid's clothing for the school the next day, when out of the corner of my eye i noticed a creature moving from the washroom into the kitchen/TV room area.

My heart sank and rose at the same time!! When i looked over i saw it was a huge frog IN MY HOUSE and believe me folks these things ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN KEITH IS NOT AT HOME!! Now my fear of frogs is immense to say the least, i will run screaming if i see them in the yard much less in the sanctuary of my home! I immediately hopped up onto the chair where i was folding clothes and started trembling, the frog at this time was hopping and stopping, hopping and stopping. And all i could think was why me lord why now??

I managed to come down from the chair grab the phone and get back on the couch, i called Kieth to see how close to home he was, he was approx 20 minutes away. 20MINUTES! did you not hear me A FROG IS IN THE HOUSE!! He then calmly instructed me to get a bucket and cover the frog with it until he comes home, that way he will know where it is and will get it out sounds reasonable right? except for the fact that to cover the frog i would have to get CLOSE to it! Not going to happen!

By this time Mr frog is in the TV room and heading for the corridor towards the bedrooms. that is when knew I had to do something!
I instructed Isaiah to keep his eye on the frog, I decided i would go out into the street and any of my neighbors I saw walking by or driving by I would ask them to come and deal with the frog for me. So i open the front door and go through my gate and stare into the street. It was completely deserted! Where were the pesky teenage boys when you need them?

MONSTER FROG

All this time i am telling Isaiah to keep his eye on the frog so that i would know where it is when Kieth or a neighbor gets here. I stand there for what seemed like an eternity, still no nieghbor, still no Keith, Idecided to head back into the porch where I can look out for a neighbor and avoid shouting to Isaiah from the street

"WHERE IS THE FROG NOW?!"

So i go close to the front door and I ask

"Isey where is the frog"

"I dont know mummy" he replies

I get dizzy.

The frog could be ANYWHERE in my house!!

I stand at the door and ponder my next move, I cant ask someone to come in and search for a frog!! I should at least know where it is! Good Grief!!

A million thoughts are racing through my mind as i stand my front door, only to catch movement in the corner of my eye again,

THE FROG!!

it calmly hopped out the front door, onto the porch and into the yard! Shaking like a leaf from fear and relief, I calmly go inside close the door and breathed for what seemed like the first time in 20 minutes of agony!!

He could have at least dressed for the occasion!!
