Thought I shared a funny little side story to the mouse conversation below.
Posted: May 16, 2011
My calico, the killer... well Saturday morning I got up to have my coffee in front of the TV in my chaise lounge which is my usual Saturday morning routine. My kitty left me a big fat dead mouse right in the middle of my lounge! I screamed bloody murder, dead or alive I hate 'em, and then I had to gather myself because I was home alone, no man in site and so it was up to me to dispose of the corpse. I put on latex gloves and got the BBQ tongs and went out into my front yard to throw it in the ditch when the nice, single, man who just moved in next door sees me in my robe and slippers, hair not even brushed yet, latex gloves, and tongs with a dead mouse. He got a good laugh.
My kitty also left me two dead birds this weekend. I immediately thought of the lady with the mouse problem and how I was bragging on my "killer" cat. There's a down side to every solution... :)
Happy Monday!

[ In Reply To ..]I can imagine that you were also holding it as far away as possible and going "ew, ew, ew, ew, ew," probably because that's what I would be doing. LOL
I feel that way about ticks.
Two summers ago, my stepdaughter chronicled "Pumpkin's Kill of the Day" because every morning there'd be a mouse or mole found dead on the back steps.
LOL. I hate meices to pieces!! nm - anon

I guess you should be flattered - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Kitty must really love you ;) My doggie brought a dead squirrel into the kitchen last summer, but it wasn't for me. She just wanted to roll around on it and get its "perfume" on her.

and stick to it. For months I read here how essential it was to pass health care reform, Obamacare was right, had to happen, because the uninsured do not receive medical care. Had to happen. Okay, in muted form, it passed. Then states sued because they feel it is unconstitutional for the federal government to require citizens to buy health insurance. The Obama admin defends the suit on this basis: When accidents or illnesses inevitably occur, the uninsured still re ...

A Conversation With A Staunch Democrat...Dec 07, 2015
I had the occasion over the weekend to have a conversation with a former neighbor, a staunch liberal democrat from New York. We used to have many discussions over the past years about politics, always polite, always respectful. In fact, she is one of the few liberals I know who is not full of vitriol and hateful rhetoric. What she told me this past weekend shocked me. She admitted to me that I had been right all along about BO and his ineffective leadership. She said she never felt so helpless ...
