So I donned my ortho boot (borrowed from Jan and helpful in protecting this sad mad toe) and hobbled around the kitchen to make french toast with mashed bananas and honey butter. I was ready to sit down and munch long before the toast was ready. I decided that today I wasn't going to break anything else, I wasn't going to encounter mice in bags of food, I wasn't going to do much because I was pretty immobile--so I decided to open the curtains in the computer room--viola! There is a dead mouse on top of the bird feeder. ! Honest! I took a picture to include my evidence, but I'm not sure without the NCIS microscopter you'll be able to identify the species, but trust me, it's there--as if dropped from the sky! Now why couldn't they drop it on the ground or to the roof of the house a foot away so I wouldn't see it--or in any of the 2 acres of woods or AT THE NEIGHBORS!!!
I think the mice have a cosmic spiritual message for me. In the past mice have shown up and my friends have said it is a messenger to pay attention to details. Well, I have a thousand details to pay attention to--bills, changing cc debt, writing a new lecture for next week, cancelling insurance, getting new insurance, cleaning out closets, recycling recycling recycling!!! So I guess it's dig in time (even though I can't very easily get down on my knees to clean--guess it will be phone calls and paper work today.)
The biggest bummer about the bad toe is not being able to see Hunter, Jeanine and Brad. I was really really really looking forward to sharing time with them this weekend. :-(
Off to a new adventure.
I think I'll hop out to the car and drive to the coffee drive in and get a big cup to exhilarate my day. Whoopee!!!
