As I approached the driveway into Doright Manor today I clicked on the garage door opener. Rounding the turn leading into the garage I noted a large lizard scampering up the door, taking ill-advised refuge in one of the door’s folds.
I yelled at the lizard, “Look out!” and tried to stop the door, but wasn’t quick enough. Now the world has one less lizard. It’s a sad day indeed.
Rest In Peace, little lizard.
Peace, people.
A trip through life with fingers crossed and eternal optimism.
Doing the best I can with what I have
kind of sad, but not so bad with cheese. cheese not provided.

How much of a cleanup mess does a squished lizard pose?

Not much. They’re very small lizards.

Of course you tried your best, but maybe next time scream out in a language the lizard will understand. English didn’t seem to work very well…

I found a dead one in my laundry room. If they get in the house and we don’t know it, they will die. There just isn’t enough to eat or they are not smart enough to get to where the spiders are in the walls. It’s an old house, there are cracks…That photo should be on the Biden/Harris campaign trail! He is promoting peace everywhere or maybe he is just saying, ROCK ON!!! Love it! 🙂

Our cat discourages lizards, but occasionally one gets past her. They don’t live long after that.

I’m sure because they are in the house or she eventually catches them. My son used to catch them in the yard to feed to his snake. Of course, this was when he was a young un! 🙂

I could tell. I hope it was quick. I’m sorry you’re living with that guilt. It is, however, nice to know others care about them. I doubt he or she will hold it against you. : ) Bestest wishes
