The "Mouse" Was Caught!

I have mouse in quotes for the simple reason that it was NOT a mouse that I had to extract from the kitchen cabinet one amazing Monday afternoon! This was the Monday of all Mondays...it actually started on a Sunday night. We dropped Cory off at the airport and about 5 minutes down the road, we got a flat tire. Luckily, Shane was able to come rescue us. There were some issues with getting the tire off, and it took over an hour to get all situated. We didn't get home until super late, so I decided to let the girls sleep in a little bit for Monday morning. Well, that didn't work out very well! We ended up having to rush around to get everyone up and off to school on time. Then, I went off to Discount Tire to get a new one. I had thought that I would teach my class there. Unfortunately, there was no Internet there, which caused problems. Then, I got the wrong tires, had to order new ones, and wasted a whole lot of time. I finally got out of there, and headed home. When I walked in the door, I was hit with a nasty smell. It took me a while to figure out...the mouse trap hadn't been checked in a few days. I walked slowly to the kitchen cabinet, opened it up, and immediately saw gray fur...Yuck! I called Cory, and we came up with a plan on how to get it out. I was very proud of myself for doing it! Taking care of disgusting things is not the most fun, but it's necessary sometimes :)
