Bad ass with a nose piercing

August, 2020

Once upon a time, there was a mouse…

I was leaning over the bathroom sink applying mascara when I felt something run across my bare foot. You guessed it. The something was a mouse! And like you are imagining, I ran as fast as I could screaming all the way to the kitchen and jumped on top of the kitchen island. Luckily, my husband happened to be pulling in the drive when he heard my screams.

My husband and son armored themselves with a tennis racket, long grill gloves and plastic bags then headed off to our master bedroom. (Can we just take a minute to impress upon the importance of the fact that there are mice in my master bedroom.) They successfully got rid of not 1, but two mice!

I clearly could not handle any of this so my kids and I packed our things pronto and headed to my mom’s house, one hour and fifteen minutes away from the mice. While we were gone I not only called an exterminator to protect our home, I got my nose pierced and adopted a cat!
