beware! snakes in my backyard


After a day of shopping I arrived home with hundreds of grocery bags. (don't hubbies tend to exaggerate when women go shopping?) I gathered my groceries from the back of the car and  began walking to our apartment but was distracted by a couple of bunnies on the front yard. I thought , "Beli will love to see them!" I hurried to our backyard so I could tell Beli about the bunnies.  I stopped to open the gate (we are fortunate our apt is fenced, for Beli's safety) so I had to put my groceries on the ground to unlock the gate. It was then I spotted something!  My heart was beating faster as I walked closer. And there it was, a snake all curled up, basking in the sun. I almost felt like I was the intruder. I know they are harmless, but still. Should I be worried? Then today Hubby was mowing our yard and he said he saw three more!


 I think this encounter has intensified my ophidiophobia!
what phobias do you have?
