There’s a mouse in my house

At Staci’s suggestion I am going to post this amusing little story…

So, we have a little mouse living in our house. Jason says he thinks the mouse lives under his bed. He doesn’t even care!! That kind of freaks me out. Dean and Chrissy saw the little critter one day in the family room and think it’s the cutest thing they have ever seen. I think mice are cute too but not living in my house! The mouse must sense this because he has yet to show his “cute” little self when I am around. Others have spoken of the mouse sighting as well. Lindsay and Melissa think he comes in through a hole in the bathroom wall. He has been seen darting in that direction (behind the toilet) when someone surprises him by walking into the loo to do their business.

So, each day when I come home from work I leave my purse on the floor next to my desk in the office. After I got to work this morning Dean called in a bit of a panic thinking I had accidently taken his wallet with me to work. I proceeded to clean out my purse in search of the missing wallet. No wallet was to be found but I did find shredded gum wrappers. I wondered how that could have happened. I took the gum package out of my purse and discovered the whole corner had been ‘chewed’ away. Oh my!! that little stinker was in my purse!!! Upon further investigation I noticed sticks of gum with big bites out of them. The absolute confirmation of his presence came in the form a little ‘chocolate sprinkle’ left as a parting gift at the bottom of my purse. Nice huh?

Anyway, just wanted to share. And, by the way, my purse will be left on the desk tonight!
