EEEEK A MOUSE!!!

Ya okay, I know you are thinking that our month couldn't get any crazier....well, think again!
So yesterday Joel had to work for part of the day then he was home and cleaning up outside. he brought in a bag to throw in the garbage.(Why he didn't just throw it out in the big can outside is beyond me!) when I hear Joel make a noise that sounded like something caught him off guard. I go into the kitchen to see what is going on and he doesn't want to tell me what he thinks he saw. But, i can tell from his distraction that he wasn't gonna take his eyes off the ground any time soon. So finally he tells me that he htinks he may have let a mouse into the house. Words any wife wants to hear. So, being the brave mother that i am i figured the best place for me to be was locked in Tyson's room with him...You know, so i can make sure he is okay and stuff!! Anyways, Alicia was over and i'm not really sure how but she ended up being Joel's faithful assistant in the mouse trapping. All Tyson and I could hear was Joel tell Alicia to go to the garage and get him his shovel! then there were sounds of "There it is!!" and the odd crash and bang to follow. Finally, Joel got it. The kitchen was in a state that made me want to cry but hey, the mosue was dead (the blood on the floor was all the evidence I needed) I just looked at Joel, looked at the mess and walked away. He cleaned it all up and hey, i got my kitchen floor washed out of it! Later that night we decided to go to the "Connect"(our young adults group) christmas party. Joel and I haven't gone to any of the things they have yet... I don't know something about abunch of grown adults dressed up like Hillbillys is a little too much for me! It was a fun night we played Taboo and Mad gab but to be honest I was right POed about the child care situation so I'm doubtful I will go back anytime soon.( at least with the boys) and i had fun hanging out with Shena and Cory. They are a blast. Tyson and their son Keagen have a play date on Thursday! But the perfect ending of my day was sitting down with my Chai tea and starting season 5 of 24. You wanna talk about intense!!! It ROCKED! i can't wait for tonight to see what happens.. Here is to TV on DVD!!!!!!
Well, I just got back from the mall. Me and Sheleen(Sterl's girl friend) went shopping. She is a lot of fun i really love her. we had fun shopping for our men. well, just a few more gifts to buy then we are done. Then comes the wrapping...or gift bagging should I say!
