I swear Ralph is haunting me

Note I said haunting as I going to hope that Ralph is dead, or if not I might have to...

Since school has been back from break I had been getting sick as soon as I would get home at night. Well my doctor was in FL...and my family does not have good luck with subs..so I waited ...

Long story short..when I go home at night I jump in my olds (on snowy days as do not want to wreck my new one) and go. Well seems that the hole that Ralph left in the back seat has been letting Co in from the exhaust (an O ring was damaged) and on top of it my car has been sluggish since last spring when Ralph first hit ....comes to find out my mechanic (who told me at the time if he saw damage/and or mouse he would take care of it but not searching for it) missed that Ralph had chewed thru some wires on my fuel injection line..hence why car sluggish hard to start sometimes. The dealership where I got new one (and Olds originally came from) did the work this time...OY no wonder I was getting sick the levels of CO where extremely high!

Work is crazy, home is as usual nuts...Taking Library of Memories at Big Picture Scrapbooking in hopes to organize my pictures so I can scrap faster....We shall see

More soon :) Catch you later!

PS to my non facebook family and or friends I try and keep more updated on there even if its just a sarcastic (*wink*) quote relating to my life..so catch me there I mean goodness my GRANDFATHER is on there! LOL

Ralph S Mouse lives...

So last week while coming up our lane (which at points looks like a swamp) I forgot to avoid one of the deep potholes (can't fix them until after the monsoons) so car made thump noise. Darn it was not Ralph...Fast forward to yesterday, on the way home for lunch non stop thumping and felt like was on a runaway train steering very loose...so took car to mechanic(he said to have someone follow think I did something to the suspension) my coworker and I got some boxes out of back seat...more trails from Ralph..UGH.....this darn thing will not take his eviction orders(snap traps are toys, wide open doors mean nothing) ...so when leaving said car at mechanics told him if he saw Ralph execute! OY...borrowed a truck from the people that farm for us. But really considering having my favorite uncle take my car until Ralph leaves or else a new mode of transportation will need to be bought...as did I mention Ralph ate the wiring to my radio antenna..so now stuck up......Ok just had to pop in and share ...really crazy busy until school gets out June 5th..kids are ready, us staff are too! Catch you later!

Green acres is the place for me.
Farm livin' is the life for me.
Land spreadin' out so far and wide

M I C K EY

MOUSE...
So a friend donated left over stuff from her Garage sale to the school and the boxes have been in my car for about a week...backseat full, trunk full..Today on the way home for pupper break (10:30, mind you I was running late for work so not paying attention obviously this morning) I remember that Friday I had brought home some Hershey's choclate and put it in the basket on the floor up front. So I looked down (briefly while driving)to see the wrapper in a million little pieces..OMG stay on the road...did I mention that I have musophobia(extreme phobia of mice and all rodents) I literally wondered how the heck I would get home if the mouse appeared....worse yet what if it ran up my leg ....OMG..longest 5 mile trip home...of course Deputy Doolittle is gone, so while I qualify not being able to drive my car an emergency, only other available vehicle was the squad car...the Sheriff would laugh his rear off (did seriously process the thought) so called my Teacher I work with (advised if in car accident what has happened) got back fine, later we took boxes out, and found more traces in car but none in boxes???? OY....my coworkers were harassing me as I said if I go in the ditch you will feel sorry (as truly I shut down when I see them) as I am calling the family that farms for us (Grandson who is a Junior in HS has been my mouse catcher since he was little) I look at mailbox at the end of the lane and see this
From Where the Green Grass Grows


Narrowed it down to happening to between 3 and 3:45 when I got home (mail and newspaper come at Noon and 3 and both were there well in ditch) do not know what happened if it was winter would think it was snow plow usual hit, but nada to the snow ...so while calling about mouse to people that farm for us told about mailbox, thinking need to report to Sheriff as it looks from the damage that someone went off the road (thank God missed the major guide wire 1 foot back of it) So car is currently parked outside windows rolled down in hopes that Mickey will leave or Kaleb comes to help evict it! Life is Never Dull...Catch you later

Edited to add...our schools bus service called ...new driver practicing ...OY...
