This post SO speaks to me, except my fear is that something else is in my basement and it begins with s and rhymes with rake--see, I can't even write it!!! I'll consider your "gitter done" plan! We just returned from the Cape--have spent LOTS of time there over the years and as we were floating in the gentle water of Brewster my hubby actually said he would like to retire to the Cape! One of my dreams. I know from working and living there in summers about the humidity and I'm sure I will have a different attitude about tourists if I ever get to be a real native:) Come see my post on a Cape Cod table which I did for Susan's TTh. Looking forward to many more interesting ideas from you!

I sooo feel your pain! I live in the woods...OMGosh! I sooo feel your pain! I live in the woods of Tennessee and we have just this year (after 10 of bein here) got mice. Bad. Our kitchen is divided in half by a wall. The one side is called "the backside" of the kitchen. The Backside is where we have floor to ceiling (almost) shelves for food storage. The cat likes to hang out back there- no-one will bug her (she's a snobby manx), and as we found out...so do the mice. The attic is exposed up at the top (this room is unfinished). well, I had (yes had) a box full of packages of macaroni noodles. 30 or so. The mice ate through 16 bags of noodles. 16! Most of which were completely empty! UGH! Now no-one goes back there without a flashlight (no lights back there) or we just say forget it and wait til the next day! We are such a bunch of wimps! My mice were consistently being caught on top of the fridge. A friend told me they were going behind and under to get to the drip pan down there. OH GROSS! We seem to have gotten rid of them for now. wish me luck! Now for the fleas they seem to have brought with them........The Farm-Marmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16317109590740405836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135482759327252188.post-55788882288464887522010-07-10T12:43:07.561-04:002010-07-10T12:43:07.561-04:00Thanks for sharing the story!

I can totally relate with your story and everytime something like this happens to me I could kick myself for wasting time and energy..which we all know is very precious these days. I look at it this way...the next time I start to get into the same mindset, I think back and it snaps me right out of my worry and I tackle it head on. It has made me stronger and a better person. Thanks again for sharing a great story!!!Mindanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135482759327252188.post-32024682549121710872010-07-09T09:01:17.484-04:002010-07-09T09:01:17.484-04:00OMG, I laughed my fanny off with this.
