A true story

Comment Published at 04:2004:2024 comments24 comments38 Visits38 VisitsReport

Last night when i went to bed, i layed there for a couple of minutes doing the mental check, yes the doors are locked, yes the dogs were fed, yes Austin is covered up and warm.. Right i can sleep now.

Then as i was just dozing off, i hear this sort of scratching noise. I thought it was coming from the front door, all i could think was please god, dont be someone breaking in... So i bolt to the kitchen and grab the biggest knife i could find, because if anyone was coming thru that door, i was bloody well defending myself and my baby! So armed with my knife and some strange sort of psyco confidence, i go to the front door and flick the light on...... nothing.... so i go and check the back door...... again nothing......

So i headed back down the hallway to my bedroom and the noise starts again, only this time it is coming from the bathroom, so, heart pounding, i flick on the spare bedroom light........ I peek around the corner....

And a TINY little mouse - and i mean TINY - comes bolting out of the bathroom. So here i am jumping up and down, still armed with me knife and confidence, trying not to scream coz Austins bedroom is right across from the bathroom, and this little mouse is running rampid in and out of the bathroom and toilet...

So i calmed myself down and tried to coaz him out with a piece of bread, but he wouldnt budge!!!

Damn thing scared the bejesus outta me!!! But man it would have looked funny if i had been caught on camera!

Re: A true story

LOL!  I am 100% sure that as darkness falls, our sense of hearing takes on bionic proportions... Unfortunately our imaginations tend to go on over drive as well.  Good on you for wanting to defend your household; knives can be very sharp though and very likely to injure yourself.  You also need to be in close to use them, try keeping a good sturdy baseball bat, a golf putter or a sturdy old fashioned fire poker out of sight but close at hand instead ; )

Re: A true story

Yes i thought about how stupid it was afterwards. More alone the lines of - seriously, what would i do? - Ooh but i like the fire poker idea. We just got new ones and they are quite heavy and sharp. but still at the other end of the house - next to the kitchen. Hopefully now i know what it is, i wont be jumping out of bed with such a fright again thou.

Re: A true story

Scary!!!

We had mouse experience over the weekened at the in-laws as well. My son came up to me and said, "mommy, there is a mouse on the stairs on the corner."  I just thought he was making things up, so I didn't really paid attention. But he kept on and on, and asked me to go with him so he could show me.   Well, as I was going down the steps, he pointed to it and I almost fell off the rest of teh way down. It was right on the corner... very tiny!!! 

My mother-in-law requests that I don't blog about this since she knows I blog... and I said not to worry about it. lol  ... this is not technically blogging though.

Re: A true story

Is it cold in Australia now? little mice go in homes when it's cold to seek some warm spots. We've had one or two (or at least I hope there were only 1 or 2) in our home during the winter. I just hate it!! But when it's summer time, they all go away.

Re: A true story

it is funny now. it wasnt so funny at 11pm last night LOL. I am quite dumb really. Seriously, what would i have done if it was someone breaking in? I need to practice safe exiting the house via Austins bedroom window if it is someone breaking in.

Of all the things i bought today, i forgot the mouse trap. Will get one tomorrow. I dont really like mice.
