My friend Rocke had me rolling on the floor laughingthis morning as she related the most recent escapade from her funny farm.
This morning Houdini the mouse escaped
the drier, a pair of jeans, Rockie with the bowl, the cat, the dog and
was finally trapped in a file folder of siding samples before deposited
safely out the back door, looking rather indignently at the six human
beings staring out at him. At which he ran under the house (and most likely back to the same opening which led him into the drier in the first place....tee hee hee.
Of course Little D wanted to save the mouse in the fish tank I
gave her to house comfortably the 20 some woolly bears she caught and
was lodging in a small coffee can - as a result of a science lesson at
my house - oops!
Rockie tells it all so much better than I do, though. She'll be
in shortly to share her version of the hyseterical hysteria from her
little farm in the woods.
Praying you all have a happy homeschooling day,
MaggieRaye
Hey! You finally have a blog!! Now, if only you could get you daughter (the oldest) online more we could get her a blog and then I wouldn't feel so out of the loop when I see her!! She needs a blog!!!
The next words are NOT renegade mice !! You are much more tolerant than I. I gave us years ago trying to be nice to rodents. They come in during the fall wood stacking and they....ready? They DIE!! I bop them with a log and throw them out the cellar door. They sneak by and make it up to the kitchen and I grab a log from the stack beside the woodstove and .... bop! They're history. I'm actually getting really good at this. The only problem is when the cat attempts to get between me and said mouse.
As for your daughter wanting to keep it as a pet, well it's a good reminder for her as to what happens when you break the law, or go someplace you're not suppose to! :-)
Good to see you are intending to blog. Enjoy.

Hi Rockie, Maggieraye had me rolling around in stitches as she related your experience of battling the illusive mouse. Glad to see you are blogging - Maggieraye's Mom
