Gotcha!

Well, little Stuart's relative was apprehended on Monday morning sometime between 6:30-9am. I wonder why little mice are active then? Hmmm. We caught him in the same drawer as poor Stu. Last night Baker's dad and brother showed up to find out where these creatures were coming in and found that one of our outside house vents was wide open. The screen mesh had been completely pushed aside. So, with the hole fixed hopefully this will be the last of my mouse adventures. Seriously hope so. As a precaution we are watching the same drawer for a couple days before we put new liner in the drawer & return the dis-infected silverware to it's rightful place. On a more serious note, one of our dogs got sick while we were at the beach this weekend. We came home to a very subdued dog with his ears back and barely moving. Turns out he has a possible bacterial infection and has been put on two types of medication. If it does not end up being an infection, the other possibilities are kidney or liver failure. Poor dog is only 7 years old. We are praying for a speedy recovery.

Okay ladies. Couple housecleaning things. Giveaway ends tonight at midnight. You have three chances to win. Comment, follow or blog about it. 'Nuf said. As for Stuart Little. He was apprehended somewhere between 6:30 am (when Baker left for work) and 8am when I went to the dentist on Wednesday morning. That means he was up and around when I was. shiver. At least we were on separate floors. Baker's mom found him. Isn't that awful and hilarious all at once? I told her not to look in a particular drawer because there were so many mouse tracks. Apparently curiosity got the better of her. The surprise was on her because she found little Stu. Anyhow the kitchen was left until I came home from the beach (which was completely beautiful and sunshiny). None of Stu's friends showed up during that time, so we hope it is safe to wash and return our kitchen to an organized and tidy state. Today, my house is being spring cleaned by a professional thanks to Baker's mama. Isn't she the bestest mother-in-law? I might just need to release a little Stu every season or so to guarantee a clean house. Kidding. Sort-of. Thanks mom!
