Yeah, I’ve seen that mouse there several times. It’s gonna be a snack pretty soon. LOL

There’s one living in the PA eagles nest, too.

Have you been watching the GA eagles? Those wee ones are so adorable.

Code Black is a show on CBS about the ER at one of the LA hospitals. Turned out to be a good one. Next week is the season finale and I hope it’s one they bring back.

Guns in our heatherns’ paws?? Aw HECK no!! They’d shoot the whole house up! LOL

No mice here, or not for long if one’s stupid enough to step foot on the farm. We’ve got good mousie killers. Many have ended up as “presents” on the porch. urgh!

I’m in layers - - long johns under my britches and a t-shirt with a flannel shirt over it. This old farm house isn’t easy to keep warm.
After tonight, it should be comfortable with just a t-shirt and the long johns can go back in the drawer .... until next week when the temps drop again. :-(

Made it home....she has several “repair” jobs for me. Then I experienced another reason why I don’t cook.

I wanted to try to make Rice-A-Roni in the microwave. I followed the directions. Took it out and added the 3 cups of water. Sitting there on the pull out board, the bowl split into about 20 pieces and the 3 cups of water overflowed the plate the bowl was on and continued onto the floor, taking some of the rice with it. Cleaning all that up was fun.

Maybe I’ll try it in the frying pan on the weekend. *sigh*
