it is probably time to get a cat...

we have a mountain home
i often talk about all the wonderful things about it
what i rarely mention
is our rodent population
hey
it is the mountains
after all
we have mice
mostly
they stay outdoors
or
 under the house
however
as it begins to cool
and
snow falls
they make their way inside
it does freak me out
especially
when i find a nest
in the arm of my robe
or
under a pillow

this morning
may possibly be my favorite tell
 the pantry held an empty walnut bag
across the room
another cabinet held this

walnuts in a vase
apparently
we have
fancy mice
eating only
from the finest of crystal
