I Do Not Like Them In a House!!!

There's a mouse in MY HOUSE!! There's a MOUSE in my house!!!
I just saw it here....

and here...

and here!!

The disease infested little hairball had the nerve to EXPLORE MY KITCHEN while I sat here on the couch doing my homework!! Oh its days are numbered let me tell you!!! I have no "Stuart Little sympathies" to inhibit the havoc I will wreak on its rapidly shortening life!

I have no real fear of mice, just a firm loathing. It may have something to do with growing up on a farm where we had mice, frogs, snakes, salamanders, mink, dogs, cats, flying squirrels, birds, wood ducks, goats, pigs, sheep, horses, bears, ferrets, and deer inside at various times. Ok so the bear didn't come inside, only onto the porch. Turns out my brave husband on the other hand, is perhaps a little more...nervous about the prospect of running into the rodent.

The question is: WHY do I have a mouse! I'm very clean, my floor has no crumbs, I do not leave garbage strewn about, I do not deserve a mouse!!!

Yes it IS all about deserving!

Ookayy..so is there a real mouse or just this paper one? And if it's real did you really take the time to make this paper mouse and take pictures of it just to show where the real one went? Wow, your life must be so busy, I don't know how you Canadians handle it! HAHAHA! I'm, just kidding. This post was well worth it b/c it made me laugh and I needed to today.

Okay, Caroline....you had a horse inside and a deer? Alive? I either missed that....or you did not broadcast it!
I remember the mink, the frogs, although they were actually more toads there than frogs....

I hate mice too! I have had very few experiences with them as when they thought about coming inside they were met with wrath and lots of traps, poison and many other such devices and many threats of cats!
We had them in our roof insulation before, and they would wake me up! It was awful!

Carolyn! I think you might have too much time on your hands! I heard you may be taking care of that by having a little one? Is that true? can't remember where I heard that.
