Visitors...

some welcomed with open arms and enjoyed...

...and some not so greatly welcomed:

Today we were cleaning. Last night Hulya looked at me and said, 'You and me...we're going to clean tomorrow.' Yes mam. Now I'm all for clean, but we just cleaned a few days ago! Like bleach, sweep, mop, wipe down good cleaning. Top to bottom. Well, I guess we are a bit cleaner now. But I'm so glad we cleaned because it helped us do some necessary exterminating. So, we are mid-cleaning and Hulya yells for me to RUN...which usually means that the cats are on the table or doing something naughty they're not suppose to do--which is just typical behavior...but today it meant something completely different. Yes, somehow in the wee hours of the morning or late hours of the night, we had a visitor to our salon. I greeted the visitor this morning with basically a blood curdling scream that I'm quite sure the heavenlies heard. A bat, yes that's b-a-t... had made its way into our cozy little home and I just am so ecstatic that we found it in the daylight as opposed to tonight when we snuggle into the couches and close the door for bed. Apparently during the day, these bats lose their superpowers and can't even really open their eyes. Bless it. Just heard a bunch of screaming and never knew what hit him when Hulya swept him up in the dust pan and dumped him over the balcony...hopefully not onto our downstairs neighbors' balcony. We can only hope we didn't pass the madness onto someone else. We sleep in the living room (the room of discovery) because it's the only room in our house with an air conditioner. Can you imagine if I had found the creepy crawler while it was flying around our living room. Now, I am all here, but that might have momentarily sent me to packing my bags. I know he may look like a little booger, but doesn't matter...he's still a bat and I'm sorry, but bats are just too too much for me. I was pretty much scared the rest of the morning until i comforted myself that I've actually had my rabies shot! Don't worry about me, just get me to a doctor quickly please if I start foaming at the mouth...
Any who, you'll be glad to know precautions are being taken so a disaster like this never happens again. If you were or are planning to visit, please don't change your mind on account of visitors like the one we found today in the salon...I promise you are more welcome than he is!
