Well, that was a first. We had to delay the opening of the
clinic tonight… because we had a bat.
Oh, it’s not the first time we have had a bat – the clinic
is located in the basement of a church, and bats seem to like churches. They
are frequent visitors here. And we have even had them during the clinic, but we
have never had to delay opening the clinic.
My feelings about bats vary on a scale between grossed out
and terrified – depending on how close the bat is to me. I loathe them – especially
when they are indoors. (Shudder!!)
Fortunately, we had a couple of volunteers that were eager
to escort the bat out. If it happens when I am here alone, I have “Batman” on
speed dial. Batman is my hero Patrick who serves as the sexton for our church
and the Catholic Church next door. I’m guessing he has lost count of how many
bats he has rescued me from!
