Another "Batty" LNO!

Friday night was our monthly Ladies Night Out, as I had explained in the previous post. It was held at "Daisy's" house this month. Unfortunately, a lot of the women that usually come, couldn't make it this time for one reason or another, so there were only four of us there. Anyway, it was a pretty mellow evening. We watched the DVD, "Killers" that Lisa had brought, which was a pretty good movie. After that, we were just sitting around chatting, when all of a sudden...

A BAT came flying from upstairs and straight into the living room, where we were sitting! I'm pretty sure we all let out a scream about that time. Jody, (who was sitting on the floor with her baby), was convinced it had come in there to attack her. Thankfully, it then flew into the kitchen where we watched it circle the room, over and over, searching for a way out. "Daisy" called for her oldest son to come downstairs and help us. He came down, went out another door and then opened the sliding door to the kitchen to hopefully get the bat to fly OUT! Meanwhile, "Daisy" was crawling across the kitchen floor, on her way to open another door. It worked!! I just wish I'd had the presence of mind to take out my camera and get pictures and video of the furry creature flying around in circles...however, I was a bit concerned it was going to fly back into the living room...and wasn't really thinking about pictures at the time.

This was not our first experience with a bat interrupting our monthly LNO. A couple of years ago, when we were meeting at church, we encountered at least one bat flying around and scaring the dickens out of us. I honestly can't say we've ever had a BORING LNO! Tune in next time, to hear of our adventures...same bat time...same bat channel!!
