Where in the World is Bob Saget?

Hubby just texted me a photo of our magicbands, which apparently arrived today. I'm embarassed to say I am looking forward to getting home and trying it on. What rhymes with pork and starts with a "d"??? ME!!!

I don't see how "me" rhymes with pork, and it most certainly doesn't start with a D.

I opened our back door, and the entire back porch started fogging up. Never seen that before.

The Weather Channel site is forecasting for my location that it will be 7 degrees at 7 AM tomorrow, 8 at 8, 9 at 9, and 10 at 10. If that pattern continues I hope they're using military time.

Here in Raleigh, the evening news spent a huge amount of time telling us all how to survive the "bone chilling" temperatures that we are supposed to get tonight. Latest forecast is about 11 degrees. They spent time on how to keep your water pipes from freezing, alerting everyone to the possibility that our cars might not start in the morning and most schools in the area have already delayed opening about 2 hours. Why, I'm not sure. We are not expecting any snow, just cooler air. The best I can guess is that it is going to take time to find long pants instead of shorts.

I know it's a serious thing down here, but having spent 60 years way up north, I can't even conjure up a shoulder shrug about those temperatures. 11 in the A.M but no higher then 24 all day. Sounds like a late spring day in Vermont to me. The extended forecast is rising temperatures to 64 by Saturday. I think we will survive.

My dog was scared of our live tree. He just kept barking at it and backing away. He's a bit of a strange mutt.

My dog was just the opposite of yours—he was not impressed at all with the "live" Christmas tree; but considering he exhibits an indifferent attitude toward most things, it was no big surprise. He has his own twisted personality, and is amusing to observe.

If you tell him to come to you, he'll run in the opposite direction; but if you're busy doing your weekend, household chores, he constantly invades your space. So then, you tell him to shoo, but he sticks to your side like velcro. I have no idea what's so fascinating about watching me do laundry and dishes, but he loves it. He definitely has his own way of dealing with his humans—when it suits him, and on his own terms.

Our county announced they'd have school tomorrow, but there's some question about whether their diesel school buses will start. Should be an interesting morning.

Are you sure your dog isn't actually a cat...in disguise?

 

[MinnieM123]

Ha! Sounds reasonable to me!

 

[JenniferS]

Yeah - here's the problem.

When you use a humane mousetrap, you still have to do something with the mouse. "You wanna let it go? In this cold?", says hubby.

Well, it's not like we're going to keep it as a pet.

And that ladies and gentlemen, is why you are better off just snapping their little necks with the regular old fashioned traps.

So, what am I supposed to do with this thing? Ideas?

Yea, I still use the snapping kind. Really don't want 'em wandering back. Snap, snap, snap!

Hmmm...? You could send it to MinnieM123's "dog".

Doin' another closer here at the outdoor mall location and watchin' the ball game.
Was actually pretty busy earlier for a cold (for us, anyway - 27 degrees) Mon. night.
Sold some shirts, scarves, and ties. But, nobody's walked through the door in about an hour, or so.
That's cool...been relaxin' and enjoyin' some FOOTBALL!!!

Too cold. I'm not leaving the house. Do you think the dog will come pick it up?

Seriously though, this thing is alive, in the trap, making noise, and hubby says leave it for now.

Is starving to death worse than freezing to death?

And once my son gets home, we're going to have issues. He'll fuh-reak no matter what we do.

I used to drive them to a small park nearby. Now that we have cats they knock the trap over to let the mouse out.

Glue Traps: These traps should be placed along
the wall and are best at catching young mice. Bait
as you would a snap trap. Check the traps often
and be careful to protect yourself from trapped live
mice. Use gloves and dispose of mice as humanely
as possible by drowning or freezing.
“Humane” Traps: These are traps that capture live
mice. There are many different designs. They are
usually baited and the mice are trapped live inside
and can be released after capture. DO NOT release
trapped mice near your home or they will find
their way back.
​

So there you have...if you let it go outside, it will find it's way back inside. You have no option except to drown that bad boy!

It's underneath the kitchen sink. The cats can't get to it.

It's minus 28 with the windchill. That thing will be dead in minutes.
