Yes...I sneak up on the thing with a piece of paper towel or newspaper to dispatch it...only to realize it is ravelings from my last sewing :oops:

LOL!

I hear you there, Suzy. I think I finally solved my racumin problem. I got two containers of mouse food and put it everywhere. Dead stinky mice all over the place, but it works. Maybe the word will get out to the mouse population, hey we better stay away from that place, Big Huey is on a mission to make us an endangered species. :lol:

Proud to report I no longer have a fear of rabbits (yay me!) but have gained a fear of ducks.
No idea why except that they chase me anytime I'm near them. Unlike the bunnies.

Glad to see you back, Laci. Also glad that rabbits dont scare you anymore. I agree about ducks, they can get pretty mean.

Ducks and geese are better in the pot than chasing you around the barnyard. :lol:

Also duck eggs make great home-made ice cream and are not bad fried either.

They are good. My grandparents raised ducks and that was the only kind of eggs they ate. Rich as the devil, probably loaded with cholesterol, but clogged arteries hadnt been invented yet back in those days. :lol:
