the mouse

First off, we love our basement apartment. It is so fun and roomy and we love every bit of it. I just have to share a little story... It was our third day in the apartment and I had my mom and sister help me arrange our place and I was in the kitchen. As I turned my head I saw out of the corner of my eye this little fast thing run underneath the stove. I was sure it was a mouse and was scared out of my mind. I told Lloyd and he said we would wait to see if anything came up and he would go get mouse traps. Well two days later Lloyd  saw the mouse run under the stove as well. That day he went out and got mouse traps. I was hoping when we woke up the next morning it would be there but there was nothing. That night I had craft night with the girls and I got a call from Lloyd telling me that the mouse was in the trap and it just happened because it was still alive. He sounded so stressed and scared. I must admit I had a hard time not laughing. That phone call was quite funny. Us girls had a good laugh with that. Lloyd got rid of it and everything was great! I was so relieved and grateful the mouse was gone. To make sure the mouse was the only one in the house, we kept the traps up for another month and there was nothing. So everything turned out great and we are good to go now. I am so grateful for my brave husband for taking care of that!
