TOAD SUCK!

Did you know there's really a park in Arkansas (down by Little Rock) called Toad Suck!? I giggle every time we pass the silly sign. Someday I'll take a picture of it!!

Anyway-we are having our own TOAD problem at home and I think it SUCKS!

I don't know what the deal is, but we've found three frogs in house since Sunday. Now people, my house is clean. I don't have bugs. I'm very particular about the cleanliness of my house, so dirtiness is NOT the problem. I don't know what the deal is! It's driving me nuts though!

We, I should say I, found the first frog on Sunday when we got home from the wedding. It was sitting on some storage bins in the entryway. Steve scooped it up, threw it outside and we chalked it up to a fluke thing and that maybe he slipped through the garage door without us seeing.

This morning-I get up at 5:30 like normal. I pee. I brush my teeth. I climb onto my bathroom vanity to put my make up on (I've been sitting on the vanity to put make up on since high school!) and squeeze me out some foundation. Something catches the corner of my eye. I glance down at the side of the kleenex box thinking "What did I put there?" Then I really saw it.

Two black beety eyes looking at me, watching me put my make up on! Can you say "Oh crap!" Because I sure did!

Ever so calmly I got down off the sink, woke my husband up and proceeded to tell him HE needed to come get the damn frog out of my bathroom so I could get ready for work. Bless his heart, he comes in, picks up the frog and flings it out the front door, hearing it thud against the awning as it goes. SWEET! Maybe the frog died of a head injury! No more frogs!

Wrong!!!

Tonight I start to walk into my bedroom for something. In the shadow on the ground, I noticed a lump and immediately hollered at Steve. Sure enough-another damn frog!!! GRRR!!

Earlier we had walked around the house looking for holes. The only one we found was where the air conditioner goes into the house. We packed that puppy with steel wool. I'm hoping that maybe that's where they are and they will no longer be around.

We'll see. I'm sitting here typing now, constantly looking around the room trying to spy out more frogs. I have a fear of one jumping on my head or chest while I'm sleeping! I think I may have to take one of my "chill pills" just to go to sleep tonight!

Anyone know of any remedies that we could try? Any tricks? Any ideas? At this point, I'm open to anything! Why?

Because TOAD(S) SUCK!!!
