• Uromastyx Mali--aka the Great Houdini

  So Rob is working until 10 pm tonight.  And my dad will arrive at the house at 7 am.  Yeah its early, but Rob has to work tomorrow too, and I figured he needed to get in on the Christmas madness. 

  So I have to get the house somewhat tidy with kid help, and no hubby help.

  Tis fine.

  I also had a couple "fun" projects to do.  The kids each decorate a cheap white matting that their putting a picture of themselves in as a present for Grandpa.  And we have luminaries set up to light after dark.

  This all said to say..

  What was I thinking when I said Samuel could have a lizard for Christmas?

  *snicker*

  He basically knows he's getting it.  But I ran into town early this morning to pick it up, and Rob set the cage up while I was getting it.  I was having trouble with the heat lamp bumping the cage...and so didn't put the lid on it.  I was told this brand of lizard is NOT a climber.

  HaHAHAHAHA

  Two hours after purchasing the lizard I went for a great lizard chase.  And when I found him I didn't realize it and made him fall 3 feet to the ground off of what he was clinging to.  I also almost squished him with the laminate flooring that's stored in my bathroom.  I moved it thinking he'd be behind it.  It toppled into what he *was* hiding on.  But narrowly missed him.

  Welcome to the Signor family Great Houdini.  You were wise to attempt to run.  Your life is being taken into your own hands.
