We are never without drama at the Haskell household. I swear, if it can happen, it happens while Daddy is away. :) Yesterday, I got up to get ready for the craft show and have breakfast. I opened the pantry only to find that several packages of food had tiny bite marks in them.
Yup. I think we have a mouse. In the 9 1/2 years that I have been on my own, I have NOT ever had a mouse in the house. Being as we live right next to a field, and given the fact that we are now a catless household, we will probably deal with this from time to time.
*Doing the willies dance and sticking my tongue out in disgust*
So I called Mom and asked her to bring some mouse traps over when she came to babysit. However many there are, they are SO DEAD!
I set the traps last night before bed and hid them in 3 places. When I got up this morning, Caitlin said that she checked the traps and we didn't get anything. I guess she forgot about the one under the kitchen sink. I opened the cabinet to get something, and there he was. I literally jumped sky high, my eyes rolled back in my head, and my skin crawled. I couldn't quit writhing in disgust.
Eventually, I got Caitlin to come and use 2 plastic baggies to bag him and then take him to the dumpster...trap and all. I don't know what I would do without her! :) I swear, mice are the ickiest things on the planet!!!
