Yes...A MOUSE...

There is a mouse in my house. Actually, this means there are probably MICE in my house, but the fact that there are vermin of ANY kind dwelling where I dwell is too much for me to handle. I wonder why Disney and Looney Tunes guy made mice into such sweet little creatures. Like the CATS and DOGS were actually crabby and bad, but the poor mice simply wanted a little something to eat. I also remember how much SMARTER the mice were than ANY other characters, and I'm afraid that is no different at our house. Luckily, I did not see said mouse, but my husband mentioned it last night. Why, you ask? Well he thought that since THE LAST ONE he got rid of without telling me (YES--there was ANOTHER), the problem was solved. When mouse number two went running by him, he knew he had to share the information. I'm sorry--I just had to throw up a little bit, but I'm good now. SOOOO GLAD he decided to share the info with me. I would have hated to go through life not knowing that there are creepy crawly things in my home. I'm not even sure where to go with this information. I mopped my kitchen floor for the first time...well, EVER, and I screamed at my children to pick EVERYTHING up off of the floor, but as I said before--they are pretty crafty. Maybe he will set up camp in the toaster oven.

  3. An exterminator!!! You go hard core when you go after mice!! I hate mice too, thankfully I think so far no issues with them here...but if we did, my cat hating husband would have to give in!

  4. Martha, we don't mess around...! Actually, our neighbor is an exterminator, so that makes it a bit easier!

  5. Having mice would be horrible. That stinks so much. We just seem to always get roaches and ants. We live in an apartment and so they seem to be nesting in the walls and it freaks me out

  6. Ugh! It is that time of year. I found mouse droppings in the kitchen one year and rewashed all the dishes and bleached the cupboards and we set traps to kill them all.

    I hope they all are caught and stop coming in.
    Following you now too.

  7. Regina, the exterminator gave us those sticky boxes, but I'm a bit hesitant...Not too excited about the potential of finding "Jerry" with his little paws stuck to a box! How were YOU with the traps?! It doesn't help that my children leave EVERY DOOR OPEN! I think I would have less respect for the mice if they DIDN'T come in...

  8. Nika, I love you so much. Not that I wish mice on you but I wish I could have witnessed this first hand. Mice use to visit us every fall/winter when we lived in Cleveland. Your toaster oven comment reminded me about a time when I found a little nest in the broiler drawer of our stove.......I know you just went to check the stove.
