You know it's going to be one of those days when it's only 9.15am and you've already screamed twice.... The first is a little indelicate so if you are of a nervous nature I suggest you look away now I'll give you a shout when it's safe to look ;). Anyhoo I was sat on the loo powdering my er nose when I heard this very angry buzzing noise very very close and I froze as well as I could mid powder! As soon as it was appropriate I jumped off the loo cos there's some places you really don't want to be stung - how would you apply ice?? Nervously I looked down into the bowl only to see the usual suspects so I put the lid down. However I could still hear the buzzing and it was getting louder and sounding even more p.o'd. I looked at the back of the toilet - no buzzy creatures there, I looked in the spider plant which is stripey but nothing there either (does need watering though) I looked at the tank that the plant was standing on no surely not.... Well no harm in looking I thought so I lifted spidey up, removed the cystern lid and this HUGE bumble bee flew out cursing me in bee language as she made her way to the open bathroom window. Heart thumping I replaced the lid put spidey back totally forgetting to water it and finally flushed the loo. That was fright number one.
*SHOUTS* okay you can look now - so I was just washing my hands when Jinx my cat jumped in through the bathroom window and meowed at me. I looked at him and screamed, now before you start thinking what a cruel mum I am this isn't the usual way I greet him. When I looked at him what I saw was a pair of twig like legs sticking out of his mouth and a few feathers the rest of the bird was inside his mouth - how he managed to meow round it I don't know. I have a slight bird phobia and I'm sure Jinx knows this very well and last night as it was so hot I shut him downstairs rather then have him all over me upstairs (ok I am a cruel mum!) so the bird was either a punishment for not letting him sleep with me last night or a "present" to try and make me let him sleep upstairs tonight..... hmmmm wonder if I could get Chris to do the same but with craft goodies instead of bird corpses...... (just kidding - damn tempting though! ;D)
Well that all my news for now - I'm hoping the rest of the day improves as I'm getting a sore throat from screaming so much. Happy crafting everyone! Big hugs Sarah aka woo woo girl xxx
Hehe very busy morning!! Ive been stung on the bum check before and it hurts!! Long story ill tell you another time hehe
ReplyDeleteSure makes a body wonder just how the bumble bee got in the tank with the lid closed. Good thing it flew directly out the window without showing you how displeased it was :-) We had a cat that would bring us presents also. Poor cat, being so unappreciated by her gifts :-( I often wondered what she thought when we made such a disapproving fuss and tossed her gift outside.
ReplyDeleteGlad you survived with only a sore throat :-)
