Frog Ahhhh

Ok so I go downstairs tonight to do some laundry and a scene right out of a horror story happens. I hear this really strange noise at the back door. My husband is out, I've just put the kids to bed....so I quickly lock the door just in case some wacko is trying to get in. Then I race to the front door and lock it too. Now it's time to call the dog, the guard dog, the yappy little american cocker spaniel! So after listening to the noise for a bit it stopped. I thought since the dog was here it was safe to open the back door now. Did I mention it's still daylight out. Yep, no one there, or at the front door or anywhere else for that matter but when I looked around the laundry room a little more all of a sudden something startles me. It's a frog, or toad I don't really know, I just didn't want it on me. So my mission for the next hour was trying to catch this darn frog without it getting anywhere near me. I tried to catch it where I originally found it but then it hopped across the room and right under my washing machine. I tried everything, the dustbuster, a long bendy stick, banging the washer, the flashlight, nothing worked so I decided maybe I would leave it for a bit...so it didn't think I was there anymore. So about 20 mins later I go back downstairs and check around the washing machine again and nothing. So I head down the hall to the bathroom to turn off the light I left on and what is sitting peacefully by the open bathroom door but the darn frog. This time I was able to corner it in the closet. It was stealth, hiding under the vacuum hose, and the closet doors but I would prevail. I did lose it for a couple of minutes I will admit only to find it at the bottom of my kids sand pail I had so cleverly put on its side to entice the frog in. Then I covered the top and off to the back yard the darn frog went to freedom. Now I can't help wondering if it was really just one frog!
