Nah Nah Nah Nah, Nah Nah Nah Nah, Hey Hey Hey, Gooood Bye!

So long little mouse. Hope the bread was yummy. May this be a lesson to all your other furry little siblings, aunts, and uncles to stay out of my kitchen. (Although there are probably eighty more of you somewhere in my house.) And for anyone who wants to know, it works best to smush some bread up into the trap part, then rub a little peanut butter on it, and under the metal piece. The greedy little mice try to get the stuck bread, then BAM! So long. Farewell. It's time to say goodbye. 

If I See One More...

If I see one more rodent, insect, or other creature living inside my house, I am moving out. There is a reason that I live in a house and pay a mortgage and dont live outside on the ground for free. Its because I don't like to live with mice or ants! They are gross, annoying, and disgusting. They belong outside or dead. We've been dealing with ants for a few weeks now, but tonight I went to get out the bread to make a sandwich for my lunch tomorrow, and low and behold there's a little hole chewed through the end of the bread. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! I HATE MICE. ESPECIALLY IN MY HOUSE. Guess I won't have a sandwich tomorrow. Get out of my house you nasty animals and bugs. Or at least stay up in my attic where I can't see you.

If you see a cell phone along the side of the road, give them a call

There is a street sign at the entrance to our neighborhood where everyone posts their signs that they want people to see and take note of. For example--yard sale, lost dog, lost cat. So the other day as I am coming home, I notice that someone has put up a new sign. On bright orange paper, duct taped to the street sign, is a sign that reads, "LOST CELL PHONE" then they give a short description in words too small to see and their phone number. Hmmm... Am I going to see a little silver cell phone laying on the side of the road or hear it ringing as I am driving by? Um, chances are slim. Try an ad in the lost section of the classifieds.

Good Quote

Just wanted to share a quote I read today that I liked:

"Everybody makes mistakes, that's why pencils have erasers."

So true. Remeber that next time you're frustrated with someone when they make a mistake.

Ode To The Pool

(to the tune of "Oh Christmas Tree")

Oh swimming pool
Oh swimming pool
I really think I hate you

Oh swimming pool
Oh swimming pool
I wish you'd go away

Your stupid liner messes up
Your algae just won't go away

And chemicals just cost too much
And that is why I hate you.
