My memory is really getting bad..I can't remember names of people or
things. I got out of the shower, and said to myself "I forgot to put on
the fabric softener", meaning the hair conditioner. Grrr


You can't have too much stash!!! Actually, one can. I HAVE to sort out
my stuff, and try to get it organized. Only then can I separate the
wheat from the chaff!

Yes you can have too much stash if the wee mice find the lovely home in your
stash. grrrrrrrr

OH NO!!!


Oh, yes. I had the stuff mothballed but did not renew the mothballs soon
enough. I live way out in the sticks on a small farm and mice are just part of
the local ecology.


You need a good, mouser ! I used to get mice in the fall, could never
find out where they came in, but my cat used to put paid to them pdq.
You need to determine if the cat will mouse though, apparently there
is a genetic marker that makes them mousers - studies have shown there
are cats that will starve to death while surrounded by mice.


I have several good mousers and several retired bums. The problem is mice only
need a 1/4 inch crevice to gain access, the cats need at least a 2 x 4 inch
opening. I live in the middle of a large forest land and far enough south that
mice do well most of the year. There has been drought conditions that drove all
wildlife closer to homes where water was available.
