Over the weekend I....

Discovered that I had 1 mouse in my house!! It tore a hole through a baggy we had on the counter and gnawed it's gross little teeth around a whole pancake that was inside. SICK! It made me physically ill. Treavor set a trap. we caught it. I'm not sure what gave that beady eyed long tailed, ugly, gray, disgusting creature the impression that it's welcome in my home. Bleached the entire kitchen.

Took Marley on 2 walks.

Went to lunch, Table for 3.

Did 4 loads of laundry

Ran 5 and a half miles on the treadmill.

Went to the 6th Harry Potter movie. Thank you Adam and Tristen for the tickets!

Heard how much fun I missed out on at girls camp from 7 young women. ( I just didn't dare leave my baby for five whole days)

Read 8 chapters of the Kite Runner.

Slept in until 9 o'clock, cause Owen did too!

Painted all 10 of my toes (pink).

Should have accomplished about 11 things on my to-do list. Didn't. Maybe next week.

Thought a lot about, but didn't get to see my 12 day old nephew Andrew.

Ate 13 scoops of mint cookie crunch ice cream...give or take a scoop or two.

Vacuumed up 14 thousand ants. They somehow have the same impression as the mouse.

Spent approximately 15 minutes on Owen's scrapbook.

Cleaned up 16 (+) messes, created by this guy:


Did I make you want to go read the Very Hungry Caterpillar?

You are clever, you should write a book! I am sooo glad you caught the mouse and I hope you never have another one! Sounds like you had a very fun and successful weekend. Hope we can see you guys soon.

What a cute creative post! That is disgusting about the mouse...I would totally hate that. I have the same ant problem though and I don't enjoy that very much! I don't blame you for missing girls camp! Family comes first.

Great post!!

Carina said...

Totally creative! I don't know how you thought of that. Sorry to hear about the mouse. That is one of my VERY worse things that can ever happen to me. I am like you and sanitize the whole place when I find there has been a mouse. YUCKY!

Such a cute, creative post! I hate mice too... had one in our house a few months ago and I really couldn't rest until I knew it was gone for good! Ant, Ants - they never go away... we had to call to get some bate traps so we could get them to go away for good. Good Luck!
