About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

The Bard's Hall, June 26- entry 5 - Mini heartattacks
Thursday is garbage night. I gather the garbage, toss it into the bins, and usually drag it to the curb while hubby cuts the lawn.
I admit I was lazy yesterday and took my sweet time.
I finally grabbed the two bags to go out, and out to the garage, opened the side door, pushed the bin from the wall, and flipped the lid back. It's normal, I don't even think about it.
I go back into the garbage, grab the first bag, toss it in, and then
Hissss, growl, hissssss.
"Holy shit," I scream, flip the lid back closed and take a few steps back. I admit I was shocked to see a racoon in my damn garbage. And I must have looked like an insane person as I rushed the backyard to grab hubby, who wasn't in the backyard. Now I had to trek back to the front yard, which meant passing the bin.
I find him in front, heading to the garage to put the tractor away. I start waving my arms, yelling, "There's a raccoon in the garbage. I can see that he's unsure whether I'm messing around with him or not. So, hubby's idea of figuring it out is to drive the tractor into the side of the bin and see what happens. 
I got nothing. All I know is, that animal scared the shit out of me. I didn't have to take the bin to the curb. And somehow, that raccoon escaped with the entire bag of garbage by morning.
