mice are not nice.

Well its Day 4 of a long week .... arrg
Normaly i think a week off with the kids is fun. We don't usally 'do' anything but we have fun ..sleepins and stayup lates..hehe nice, easy... make chocolate chip cookies...have friends over.
Not this week... grrr ... we have known that there are mice ...but i guess with Spring coming everyone got cozy... double grrr... and they all (not really) MOVED In my kitchen. AHHHHHHH
i have too many open cupboards or this might not be so bad? but it is bad. oh is it ever. So i did what i thought the best thing ...i cleaned the downstairs kitchen, the kitchen with lots of cupboards. Although it wasnt 'used' it was dirty. and i noticed some holes to be patched... some cupboard doors to be fixed...so all is well now.. and ALOT of the dishes are cleaned and put away...but mercy.. still sooo many to do..stuff like tins, pans, racks, pots, that dang plastic stuff that i put in a basket...sigh ..yes i do have a dishwasher...Thankfully the first two days i had it workin its weight, but now its all elbow grease and mouse $^!+ .....sigh i've been on the snap line girls.. i have thought during this i might not make it... Gee what a lot of bleach, time and ick.... We did manage to snap (hehe) two mice in a half/hour the first night (sunday)..then two more the next mornings. And we have restorted to poision.. Yesterday i didn't have a kill... but this morning low and behold we got two!!..HAHAHA (total evil laugh) even now as i sit here the dead corps are waiting to be thrown out...after my coffee...(more laughter) i may need professional help after this week....at least my family will. If you phone me and i seem strung out..i am. If you greet me up town (getting more poisoin & traps..and bleach) sorry if i dont smile... and the gross workman clothes, yeah thats gross.. so don't hug me. i am no where near the end of the tunnel... but the sunshine we had yesterday helped. At least when i went outside
for bleach-detox, for a moment it felt nice. ...with coffee. Btw, yes we need a cat i know..but i have a very strong man opinion that has said 'never'. Plus he is allergic to them. His eyes go all blood shot and look inside out, and then there is the breathing thing... well actually the lack of breathing. SO although yes we need one...we can't at this time. i have been praying for a weasel though. Hope you all the best spring break day...chow.

update: March 23rd time 11:20pm
Well last night i got one more..thats SEVEN now..hahaha none this morning but no fresh $^!+ either so maybe we are wining??...i felt some better today..thanks friends..prayer does ease the mind/heart.

Poor little mice. At work I see them everyday, so I've kind of got used to them. I just hate the type of mouse traps they use, sticky pads which gives the mice a slow and struggling death.
