Would you have described yourself as bat $#!t crazy at that point?
Yep. I felt awful because they were so scared, but every time that d*** bat swooped by my head I absolutely couldn’t stop myself from screaming. About fifteen years ago and I can still remember it lying on its back, claws up, squeaking as I took the broom to it. (Shudder).
For months afterwards my husband would say, “ Guys, what does mommy say when she sees a bat?” just to hear them scream and shriek.
