What a suprise to start my day. I got up and fixed DH's breakfast and packed his lunch. Well while I was in the kitchen our youngest cat Merlin kept trying to get in the foyer closet so I opened the door. Then I went upstairs to get a load of clothes to wash and started back downstairs. Imagine my horrow when I turn on the light and find a dead lizard on the stairs. Now I know why Merlin came in the room and would not be quiet. He was bragging. Of course I was horrified. I swept the deceased out and properly disposed of his remains.

I called Mum and Dad and they offered their sympathy. DH checked again to make sure I was recovered from my shock and horrow.

Well the day can only look up from here. More later.
