I was surprised because I didn't leave a message although I DID read this post -- I didn't comment because I grew upon a farm with mice usually in the house. They never bothered me. I don't even get freaked about rats which I used to see sometimes [not in my apartment] in NYC when I lived there. Cockroaches were definitely not friends but they didn't freak me either. Now snakes would be quite a different story. We each have our buttons.June Calenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00265808476144632255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-22073225107986065342010-09-09T09:03:08.503-05:002010-09-09T09:03:08.503-05:00OHHHH...poor little mouse, he was probably just as...OHHHH...poor little mouse, he was probably just as scared as you were.<br /><br />I remember sitting in my sisters dining room when she opened her bread drawer when one jumped out and she gasp, saying mouse.... he came running across the floor...before I thought I picked up my foot and down it came, right on top of him...... (I did have shoes on tho) then I looked at her and said... NOW YOU CAN GET HIM AND TOSS HIM OUTSIDE AND HOPE HE DOESN'T COME BACK IN AGAIN.<br /><br />I don't like them either, but I love mouse traps and their help. Dealing with them in a trap is much better then when they run across our bare feet.Vernahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700639166741533028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-997308729790934502010-09-08T12:00:42.445-05:002010-09-08T12:00:42.445-05:00...but still trying to figure out what is that in ......but still trying to figure out what is that in a mice that a woman can't stand ?Haddockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573906991666088642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-3001877501635576122010-09-08T07:18:43.702-05:002010-09-08T07:18:43.702-05:00Just seeing them gives me the chills - you know ho...Just seeing them gives me the chills - you know how I feel about them! <br /><br />Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16873029956740258055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-31095994468028592942010-09-07T18:53:20.386-05:002010-09-07T18:53:20.386-05:00I would have fainted.

They'll be looking for a warmer place to live shortly and they are not welcome here.<br /><br />Wanda, I know, just the thought gives me double shivers :) <br /><br />Bonnie, exactly right... the surprise plus they know no limits and will freely roam. Nolan needed a new pillow case in case the mouse had walked on it :)<br /><br /><br /><br />Karen, as in fake or as in a real "satin" mouse? <br /><br />Gitz, this is where the hubby comes in... me I'd settle for dead too, but him, um no, not if he can help it. So I settled for far from here and pray that stinker doesn't find his way back.<br /><br />Susan, ha ha, he does, I bet he is :)<br /><br />Oh Jen, no, eek no. I don't know if I could ever get used to them...<br /><br />Vic, I know, he is a wee little thing. But it was over when he ran across my feet... seriously done.<br /><br />Karen, I hope to get to know you better and visit with you again soon :)Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-59646899135750358002010-09-07T18:06:36.325-05:002010-09-07T18:06:36.325-05:00Hey vicky..

Sha...Oh Geez. He's and etsy bitsy little thing.<br />Shame on you.<br />lol<br />I have so many of them here, compliments of my cats. lol<br /><br />Well now I have a lot less since one cat is gone. He used to eat the heads and leave the bodies at the front door. Or he'd bring them in his mouth and then scratch to be let in. Poor mouse.<br />Take another look. They are just little creatures who want to live as much as every one else. lolA Lady's Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973102350411443282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-76221817892089487992010-09-07T17:08:05.488-05:002010-09-07T17:08:05.488-05:00Oh dear, your bare feet!

Every autumn we have to put out a lot of traps. This afternoon I saw one run across the kitchen floor. Time to dig out the traps.crochet ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04720374771067791687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795026946181152215.post-54855034744583431892010-09-07T16:19:09.626-05:002010-09-07T16:19:09.626-05:00You tell this well ... :-)

I DO NOT like mice. <br /><br />When we lived in Colorado and were surrounded by alfalfa fields, we were always finding mice in the house. Yuk! We finally put an outside trap for them and caught at least 5-10 every few days! No joke!!!<br /><br />Hope you had a nice getaway. :0)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
