Lapse in judgment (not for the squeamish)

I yell "Kevin!" He's like "yeah?" I say - "Kara has a retic wrapped around her hand". He goes "how big?" I'm like "Pretty damn big!"

See, that's love...not, "omg is she okay?!", but "is it *really* so big I have stop what I'm doing....sigh".

I'm very glad to hear the bite was not as bad as it could have been! I hear rum helps the pain. =D *hug*

See, that's love...not, "omg is she okay?!", but "is it *really* so big I have stop what I'm doing....sigh".

Yeah...we had to have a little chit-chat along the lines of, "Hon, if the snake is so big that I have to send someone to get you for help, just come over. Don't ask questions. If I need you to get involved, it's big enough!!!!"

At first he tried biting the snake to see if it would let go...after all, it worked on getting a similar-sized retic out of our rafters last year (but that's another story entirely...). Of course, this just caused the snake to bite harder, and I was like, "Ok, that hurts...time to try something else." Fortunately his idea of holding the snake's nose against the floor & applying steady, firm pressure convinced her that letting go would be a good thing.

So! Some entertainment for the girls, and a good reminder not to let my guard down when playing with the big stuff...not to mention a nice little war wound.

I'm glad we didn't get a show like that when we visited yesterday!! Our 6 year old daughter did get her face way too close to a few snakes. After tempting fate numerous times she did finally get a minor war wound, a scratch from a chicken.

Kara's thumb still doesn't have all the feeling back. And of course a nasty scar!!
