Saturday

Today was great-ness! Well, until about 4pm. I stayed up way too late with friends, then reading my book into the wee hours! I love that! I slept in this morning, and got up, gave Copper a bath, did some laundry, and other things I had been putting off.
I started to vacuum, and then it died. I did all the girly things you do when something stops working. Kick it, push the on and off switch over and over and over and over, check the plug, and turn it over and stare at all those parts. I didn't know what else to do, so I did the closest thing to me. I laid down to take a nap of course! When I woke up the thing magically worked, but I am not sure for how long. I am going to start looking for a sale on a new vacuum this week.
After the nap, I decided to go get my car inspected, only to find that they close early on Saturday.
When I got home, I thought I would clean out the garage. Now, if you read my blog, you know about the little mouse situation in the garage. My garage doesn't have too much in it, because I am a girl and some what of a neat freak. (Side note- I am really big on keeping my garage clean because that is the one thing that all of your neighbors can see. ) I began sweeping up all the little critter mess that I could see. Then I got the bright idea to move my cute shelves so I could clean under them. Well, you can guess where this is going. YES! There was a dead mouse under the shelves. EWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! I put on my big girl panties, and took care of the stupid problem. That's when I saw it. Something else was under the shelves. After freaking out I decided I was being silly and was just going to go and move the shelves back. Duh-duh-duhhhhhh. I heard a small noise, and then saw a little streak of blood. I KILLED THE MOUSE. Knowing how much I hate the little critters, you would think this would excite me. All I can think about is that I killed an innocent stupid mouse. Actually, I saw the tail still moving, so either there is more than one under there or I hurt it, and it will be dead tomorrow. So sad!
I decided I had had enough and just left everything all spread out, pulled in my car and hopefully can have a brave friend come over to help tomorrow. Whew. I am done for the day!
