It scared the poop out of me!

This is how my day ended...

This is the way my day started...
This is my little hillbilly really hanging out in the back yard for the first time.

This is what changed Crush from happy this morning to scared to death tonight...

Yep. It is a dead raccoon. It is singly the most nasty thing I have ever seen in my life. I was in our shed (farmhouse is what the kids call it). I decided today after mowing to get in there and see if there were bikes etc that Nemo could be playing on. I was cleaning away everything was fine. Do you see that blanket just to the left of the carcass? Yep, I touched it. Than I ran screaming out of the shed crying hyperventilating. The bigs tried to comfort me, told me it was ok. I almost vomitted. Just to tell you how bad and nasty it was we asked 5 grown men for help but they wouldn't do it. Finally our neighbor Paul stepped up and helped us. We will be making him some chocolate chip cookies tomorrow! So now Crush is so scared of what he saw in that shed that while I was in the shower he came and set on the toilet seat. Just a thought...you might want to check your sheds for dead animals :)
Good night.

Gross! Was there anything but the skeleton? I don't think I would have known that was a raccoon.

EWW and poor kid! My kids would have picked it up and brought it to me, I'm glad your kids have more discretion. :)

Oh my goodness... Ok.. there are some things its okay not to share on your blog.. haha!!! Not really.. I can imagaine how traumatic that was, each time I go into our shed it is with a prayer that there is no Spiders, skunks, raccoons, or opossum in there as well.. All of the above have made a appearance but left alive thank goodness.
Bleach.. Yep I would be buying lots of bleach.
