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

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...
Just think if a mouse runs up your leg, you can identify with Obama supporters when they get that tingle feeling up their leg. :) As far as your mailbox, does someone just have it in for you guys? Auntie
ReplyDeleteIt was a school bus driver who hit the mailbox?? Holy cow. Are Turners going to pay to fix it?
ReplyDelete(I'm refraining from commenting on the mouse appearance because I'm curious about the outcome. Be brave! :))
