That darn mouse!

I feel like I'm playing a role in "Mousical the Musical", this darn mouse is leading me on a merry chase. With two nights mouse-free I thought right, word had gotten out into the mouse kingdom that this was not a good place to be. No sight nor sound, no tell-tale signs. Then I walk into the laundry in the afternoon yesterday and mouse droppings!!!! In the middle of the floor. During broad daylight this time no less, with a cat in the house. Arrrrrgggghhhh!!!!

THIS IS WAR !

I sound all charged up don't I? But any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. We fear this devious mouse (who is obviously the ringleader of the other poor suckers that met their dire ending) is far too slippery a character for even us to outwit.

Step son number 1 is coming for dinner tonight and possibly a sleepover. Now that he lives over the other side of Melbourne I thought we wouldn't see him as often, but I do believe we're seeing him more, which is a good thing. Gotta love how I've trained these kids. He has bought himself a motorbike to get around on. The other kids don't know that yet, that's a surprise tomorrow when he pulls up in their driveway. But he said to me last week, I'll come down on the motor bike so you can take pictures ... (then he added) to scrapbook !!! ROFLMAO. Is he trained well or what?

It's been a cruisy day today and quite frankly has felt like Sunday being that I had yesterday off. I finished another page for mum's book last night, utilising again some old slides but incorporating a current day picture. Hope you like it. Oh ... and if you read this and happen to know my brother, please don't ask him "where's puffin' billy?" In days gone by he would lift up his shirt, point to his belly button and say "there's puffin' billy" !! haha For overseas readers, Puffing Billy is an old steam train that takes tourists for rides in the Dandenongs.

Oh and as an aside, if you do know Trevor and are reading this blog, don't tell him about this book!
