My worst fear

I hate mice, rats and any other thing that resembles a rodent (hamsters and guinea pigs included). I am truly terrified of them. Two weeks ago we were moving some stuff around in the garage and Seth noticed mouse poop, my heart started racing and my body started shaking I was freaking out! He cleaned up the poop found out where the mouse was living and assured me that our uninvited house guest was LONG GONE. And I assured my husband that if I EVER find a mouse in our house that I would be LONG GONE.

Well today it happened. Seth was bringing a box in from the garage and our uninvited house guest jumped out of the box ran across my living room floor and under the Christmas tree. I screamed so loud, "Mouse, mouse, went under tree". I ran into the kitchen jumped on top of the kitchen table I was shaking and freaking out, literally on the verge of tears. The front door happened to be open and Seth grabbed a broom and was able to chase it out of the house. I couldn't get off the table for a least 5 minutes after the ordeal was over. The hair on my body is standing up as I relive this horrible nightmare.

You might be wandering where the cat was during all this...my screaming scared her and she ran and hid, she missed out on a yummy snack!

Guess what Seth will be doing on Monday? Cleaning out the garage!! I assured him if that happens again I will be MOVING OUT!!

PS..thanks honey for thinking so quickly on your feet and getting that thing out of our house in a matter of minutes. This is another good reason why I need to keep you around to protect me from my worst fear. As I said before you are a keeper! PSS --I'm not joking, I will leave if we ever find one in the house!! oxoxox.

Do Your's Bounce Too???

This is a conversation I overheard the other night and to protect those involved from utter embarrassment I will refer to such individuals as child B and child C...

Child C and Child B walking down the stairs giggling as they walk into the kitchen, Child B looks at self in the window and starts bouncing up and down...

Child C: "Do you feel it?"

Child B: "Ya, I can feel them bounce up and down." Giggle, Giggle (Child B looks at Child C and as she's bouncing up and down) "Do you see them bouncing?"

Child C: "Ya they bounce." Giggle, Giggle

Child C starts bouncing...

Child B: "I can feel mine bounce too." Giggle, Giggle

Child B: "I can see them move too"

giggle, giggle...off to bed they went...

aahh, brings back memories of growing up!

White Christmas ; )
