Guess it's my turn for the heebie jeebies....

Hailey came screaming into the living room earlier - she was looking out the classroom window and lo and behold there was a SNAKE. Ugh!!!! I am 99.9% sure it was a baby king snake, but still. It was a SNAKE. Heeeeeebie jeebies people. I'm still getting the shivers lol!!

eeeekkkk I am not scared of much Jaime but snakes sure give me the heebbiiee jeebies too

Other than gardner snakes we don't usually have to worry about them here.

That's one good thing about cold, cold Wisconsin winters... not many snakes! EEK!

eeeeek!!!
i remember seeing snakes when mowing the yard as a teenager ... it was a push mower .. when i'd see those snakes i'd literally pick up the mower by the handle and bang it on the snake .. kinda gross, but that was my first "OH MY GOSH" reflex reaction.

funny you say that Carrie! I did too. Also, when I was a teenager, my grandpa was a farmer so he used us grandkids as his laborers to build fence and hoe cotton. I can't even count the times I've had to kill rattle snakes with just my hoe or shovel. nasty little slimy creatures

Uuuugh! I would have FREAKED out over a rattlesnake.

When we were camping last July we came across a copperhead. My husband his best friend were all interested and wanting a closer look...I was running. The kids were somewhere. I can't recall. BAHAHA. No, seriously, the girls and I took off!

I hate snakes! I couldn't even scroll down on Renee's post about the snake because I just can't even think about it! I get the heebie jeebies just thinking about it!

I'm right there with you. My legs freeze even if I'm driving and a see dead one on the side of the road.

This made me LOL....that sounds like something I would do but it would be my husband running with the kids! bwahahahaha - I don't like snakes but I don't fear them as much as I do spiders. Weird? yes....LOL -- although I do have to say - I will not mess with copperheads. They are much more vicious than rattlers and have a bigger striking distance. So I may be running right alongside everyone else! hahahahah
