under some carpet rolls by the garden for a snake that T found a
couple of days ago. I told them I couldn't cause I didn't have my
snakin stick. Madi quickly picked up the hoe and said, "here use
this". After several tries we gave up without finding any snakes.
Fast forward to yesterday. (does that make sense)
I hear Juli & the girls carrying on and hollering for me to come kill
this snake that Juli had impaled with a rake. When I got there I asked
where my snakin stick was and Madi grabbed the hoe for me. I wacked
the snake a couple times, and thus saved the women from certain
slithery peril, before throwing it's carcass in the woods.
As I walked back to the garden with my instrament of death in my
clutches Soph let me know that I could use that snakin stick any time
I come over. She's so sweet.
In conclusion, I hated to kill the snake. However I take comfort in
knowing that it was already mortally wounded and I was performing a
mercy kill. Plus my Y chromosome likes to kill beasts that threaten
the safety of women folk. You can see from the picture of my
vanquished foe at the end of my snakin stick that he could have easily
eaten us all if I had not acted swiftly.
