This is Carlene:
She is a baby possum that may in fact be a boy. I'm still going to call her Carlene because if I were a possum, Carlene would be the name I would choose for myself.
This was my face when I realized Carlene was in the tree behind me:
As you can see, I tried to smile through the fear, but I was terrified that Carlene would decide I was a tree and try to climb me.
She didn't, which is why I'm here to tell the story, but it was touch and go for a bit. Okay, not really. I think Carlene actually just fell asleep in the tree. It was odd that she was awake mid-day so I'm not surprised she was more interested in sleeping than in whatever I was doing.
Happy Sunday, All!
Gracey
