The fat grey mouse is dead!!

The fat grey mouse is dead!!!

Hurrrah!!

Hurrah!!

Mwhahahahaha!!!




..............you're next little black kitchen mouse!!

I was so tempted to take a photo, but I thought that would just be too disgusting, he was sat in such a funny dead pose at the back of the trap, like a fat portly man from a Dicken's novel with his nasty clawed little feet resting on his fat peanut butter filled belly, oh he looked so smug, smug and dead....victory is mine mwhahaha!!!

Unforgiveable Apathy


I've been SO lazy today, and I haven't really even felt guilty about it, I just cannot be bothered to do anything even though there is plenty that needs doing round the house.


Apart from looking after Edward and myself today I have done almost nothing other than vegetate on-line and in-front of the TV. In the morning I did speak to a journalist on the phone, she appealed for people with baby stories on my birth-club and I put us forward as I thought we'd make a good story and I know that the magazines can pay quite well, I'm also hoping we may get a nice family photo-shoot out of it.


Mostly I think I'm recovering from yesterday and preparing myself for tomorrow's trip to Reading to see Mr Chris.... I shall leave you now with many beautiful photos of my gorgeous gorgeous boys, I have probably put too many similar ones up, but they are just so heart-warming I can't choose between them :o)


Edward casting magic spells....we suspect 'summon milk'



I'm telling you Daddy that IS the way it's cast!


Oh Daddy you're so funny!!


BUNDLE!!!

War Bulletin

I have been informed by one of my spies that the mices did in-fact make a cheeky move last night, there was much leaping and scurrying and running under the desk....fools...did they think I wouldn't find out??

Amazon have informed me that the trap is now out of stock and so I cancelled my order through them and have placed one with another company for the same product...what a kerfuffle!

Update on the War

The mouse trap arrived...hurrah!!

The mouse trap was faulty...boo!!

All has been quiet here on the Western front, not a squeak nor a nibble has been heard since I saw them last week. I think the mices must have caught wind of my evil plans....I knew I shouldn't have cackled quite so gleefully when I plotted their downfall, it is the typical bad guy mistake to give away the evil plan before they are actually dead thus giving them time to escape dam dam dam!!

On the plus side Amazon are already shipping me another and paying the return postage (so they should) so hopefully in a few days the war will truly begin in earnest.

Spring...well Summer Clean!


The house has been a bit of a mess recently and in need of a good clean. It's quite hard to do as it's physically demanding and so time consuming, so it's taken me a while to get around to doing it.

Last week I cleaned the bathroom and oven, today I tidied most of the house including tackling the piles of boxes in Edward's room, really there is a limit to how much I can do without selling stuff on E-bay which is my plan, but that is going to be a long day of sorting clothes into lots and writing the descriptions, not to mention taking the photos, working out postage and finally uploading them all onto said auction site!

Luke did his bit and did the hoovering which I find too difficult, he also did the windows in the lounge and our bedroom. It is unbelievable how different and how lovely it looks in comparison, the whole room now feels so much lighter and more airy which is a major bonus when the temperature and humidity is so high.

Edward had a good day watching us he is getting to the point now that he is able to sit in his Winne The Pooh ring, though he needs more practice. He was particularly helpful when it came to the washing and he helped me sort it out and hang it all up :o)
